The Oracle never said he'd keep the ultimate arcane power. I think this is a good way of fulfilling the prophecy without removing V from the comic (because it's widely known that having a super-powerful character as a regular on any plot-centered show/comic is bad news).
True, the temporary part isn't as problematic as some other things (namely that there are three fiends, and he'd have to say 4 words to one right being to get the power, and that there is power greater than those of mortal casters ... for example, the soul binding spell and the time stop effects the fiends are using may not be accessible to him even while he's melded ... which wouldn't be total/ultimate ...)
