You've got me wondering how taxing it could possibly be now. I thought about how they were only for people who possessed the echo but thinking further, that doesn't make much sense. BUT it still makes more sense then the amount of times where major characters could have used teleport but just didn't.

I know I know. Not teleporting makes this story more interesting. Just like people forgetting to use their phones in stories based in the real world. But the amount of times I've had to save people in teleport-friendly locations. Surely it isn't too taxing to teleport that it reaches the point of lethality.

I hope Tataru does have some gift beyond what we can already confirm. She has played the long game in terms of grabbing a part of the spotlight. First seeming like a minor character, less significant than Momodi and her counterparts and gradually to having story missions purely to bond with her, giving her a close-up in a CG trailer and being your second or third longest standing ally besides Alphinaud and Raubahn through most of the HW story. An admin with the Echo would be really useful.
