Also, the reason it’s “as effective as power word kill on common folk” is because common folk are weak and meant to weak. They’re not heroes.

Fly swats are overpowered because they're as effective as a machine gun at killing flies.

It's important for others reading this that they realize a cat can kill a commoner in one attack. A magic user using magic shouldn't be shocking, even when that magic is flavored as an insult.
