You might be surprised how often people would try to argue that Sword and Shield stacks with Green Arrow. It's just smarter to state it on the card and be done with it.
But "in the Lineup" DOES state it on the card.
Unless you're playing with a variant where Super Villains go into the Lineup, I guess.
Metallo's reveal is to avoid cheating, the same as many other cards that require a reveal. Otherwise it would be easy for some petty player to claim they have no Super Powers, gain a weakness, then play a draw on their turn, use a destroy to get rid of the weakness, then claim the card they drew was the Super Power they didn't actually discard to begin with. It just keeps everyone honest.
Oh, right. I was figuring it could be a choice.
Telepathy was... well... Aquaman calls sea creatures to fight for him. He makes others do some of his dirty work. Why not let your opponent do some of your dirty work? :D
I get the idea, I'm just not sure how much fun it would be. *shrug*
