Can he also control rocks and normal-ass-dust? Is he a windbender or earthbender? Is the Semblance actually psychic abilities that he chooses for some odd reason to only apply to Dust? Plus, concentrating Dust into a single direction is the sort of thing anyone could accomplish with the right device or weapon. Cue weapons like Myrtenaster and that tornado-spear that one chick from NDGO used. I had thought of it in terms of having psychic barriers, which would funnel it with greater intensity into a single area. Think of it as containing a gas while continually increasing the pressure inside the container, only the container is psychic and not physical. That's how I figured it'd apply

Windbender...ow...my ATLA loving heart.

Fair point, though with this you could somewhat guarantee a decent range, at the very least. I know that argument point hasn't really worked in the past, but a dog doesn't always need new tricks if he can fix the old ones.
