Roflmao, I was being serious!

You can't possibly think Twilight is a match for her teacher if, and I doubt this would ever happen because fights of a physical nature essentially never happen in this show...people seem to think Twilight suddenly has all the powers of the universe which, in turn, somehow make her super-generic and unlikeable and blahblahblah -- while it's true that Twilight has crossed a very big and tangible threshold, it's not crazy to believe she still has more then alot to learn, not just about being an Alicorn, but in life - Celestia has thousands of years over her...even if Twilight suddenly was blessed with power, I find it hard to believe she could beat her teacher in, well, anything.

Oh, and as for being super-generic just because she's powerful? That's just stupid anyway...Superman isn't uninteresting for all his power - nor should you also has some 'darkness' in order to be interesting either...again, some of the best well-rounded characters and heroes, have no such thing. Some of the complaints people sometimes are just so darn superficial.

As for the others reacting negatively...I don't see why this wouldn't happen: it's certainly realistic....their friendship has suddenly undergone this huge change, and they are now, Twilight most of all, forced to adapt...the canon was crazy-straightforward about it, but even so, reality will eventually settle in sooner or later, and life must go on...the dynamics of their friendship will change, for better or worse, and the others undoubtedly will move on in some big way sooner or later as well. This is the kind of tension that you could expect, and honestly, look forward too.

Celestia stripping Twilight's powers wouldn't be pointless - it would be a worthwhile lesson should Twilight start to act spoiled, and prevent her from becoming another Discord (who may actually become a bad influence)...it could also, as before, give her a trip down memory lane and perhaps question if she wants to return to being a unicorn or not....if such an episode happened, I'd expect she'd want to remain an Alicorn but she certainly would have alot to reflect on and with a worthwhile lesson or two. If the canon is seriously approaching the longevity issue, then in some way, their will probably have to be compromises of some sorts that can benefit all parties (e.g. Twilight, akin to Hercules, keeping her powers but retaining her mortality; Cadence may be the same).
