The question is how far does "as if" go?
An example is the clear spindle resonant power protects against mind control as if protection from evil. So is that only against evil sources or all the same types of things that Pro Evil covers, but from any alignment? This phrase could use a precedent to clear up all things.
*the inspiration to finally make this thread in hopes for a FAQ goes to Mark.
It is going to vary. There is no way to provide a perfect answer.
Z does A as if B.
How does B do A ? Z does it the same way, but doesn't lose or gain anything not related to doing A.
This may need to be adjudicated on a case by case basis.

AFAIK, the resonant power work only against evil.
As per RAW, only evil.
I know the current "RAW" is it's only against evil, but when I first read it I didn't think it was limited to only evil. This is why I'm using it as an example. If you feel it's not worth FAQing then don't, if you'd like to to see what answers we can get from a FAQ then FAQ this.
