1) I'm using the wall as a simple example.
2) The "giant phoenix" can also be re-expressed as a wall.
3) The point is to demonstrate the fallacies of just assuming in the world of SoD analysis, which because of our lack of knowledge on sci-fi/magic mechanisms, tends to be thermodynamic. When you go to thermodynamics, things generally assumed to require energy, sometimes don't.

I'm feeling vindicated now that someone has started talking about spirit power, when, despite me being a longtime proponent of the magical divine and souls in Nanoha, I have been curtailing it in the face of the healthy (yet somewhat intoxicating) scientific scepticism of the Tech thread.
The idea hasn't even been peer-reviewed with a knive yet, and you feel "vindicated?"
