Words on paper?

Pshaw. People who can flip tanks have no reason to be honor-bound to such things.

If Thor hypothetically turned bad and decided to "rule the world", the fact that he signed a piece of paper promising that he wouldn't would be entirely meaningless. He's incredibly dangerous with or without that piece of paper.

Thus, Thor is ostensibly every bit as "dangerous" as Magneto or Prof. X. Which was my original point before it got muddied up. "Mutants" are no more or less inherently dangerous to "normals" than any other super-powered beings. It's All or Nothing, you're either a Meta or a Normie and ALL Metas are inherently "dangerous" to humanity. Which is why it's dumb to say, "These Metas pose MORE of a threat than Those Other Metas".

No, they don't. You can either read minds or you can't, you can fly or you can't, shoot fireballs or you can't. And if you CAN, then you're "potentially a threat" regardless of where those powers came from. I don't see what's so complicated about that.
