If you have the power and can guarantee that power, not using that power is illogical. The problems arise when players are too dependent on the power even when it's not working or think it guarantees wins when it's still important to play defense in areas where the power doesn't affect. That is, it's important to be clear on the limitations of the power and that other powers can counter it. Regardless of power, players have to be flexible in response to others.

Hatsumi had problems but more to do with disbelief that someone had the power to block her (and thus refusal to adjust despite her team warning her about Miyamori) and a lack of defense. The latter's not a power problem, just a lack of effort or attempt on her part. Hatsumi probably should still go for east and north on her north seat, but if she finds herself blocked, play defensively and try to stay in north if she can, esp. if she knows / figures out East has a small hand. Usuzawa spends the power / effort regardless on blocking so tire her out.
