The point based system they decided to use for psionics is quite balanced. The Psion (or Wilder or Psiwarrior or ...) exchanges the equlivent of a higher spell slot (more PP to active the power as powerful as they wish) to get that additional effect. A better way view powers as having somekind of Meta effect already built into the description. Your still limited by your level (hence the max PP you can spend to manifest). While spells on the other had do increase in power without costing the mage a higher level spell slot. Going with your view, a Fireball would always do 5d6 damage as a level 3 spell, but if you wanted it to do 7d6 then it would use up a 4th level spell slot.</blockquote>
