"it's not a superpower! i cant even do a boring and monotonous task!"
and
"I love that I found a place where I'm able to utilize the benefits of the way that my brain functions!"

    It's a super power in the same way that being able to mentally move yourself while not being affected by gravity is a super power. In specific circumstances it's awesome. The rest of the time you're just trying to not float away.

    To put a finer point on it: OG Quicksilver (don't even get me started on the historic Marvel v DC handjobbery) ended up so "super powered" that his inborn celerity transcended the very laws of physics — having little to no frictional effect on the reality he was moving through. Thus, much like Jean Grey, Magneto, Legion, and a few others, his powers were not only beyond "super", but recognized as equal parts boon and curse to the entire species. Thanks, 90s.
