Using it to debunk theories we think are true is the right way to handle it, but given the many flaws it has it's wrong to just take it's word out of the gate especially if it contradicts the manga. It's originally why I was on the other side of this conversation, because I thought Gaara having Magnet Release was media confirmed. After hearing otherwise, my view changed. Another issue is that because the Ichibi has Magnet Release, that people think it automatically allows Gaara access.

But we should at least keep it close to what we have. We shouldn't be in the business of abridging based on our views. I think we should go with your suggestion of adding "Sand manipulation" as a unique trait. Because it is a unique trait. Sorry if I seemed like I was attacking you. I think me & you had a meeting of the heads; based on a misunderstanding.
