Basically, the Schnee's (somewhat ironically) give up the special snowflake powers other people have (not in an insulting way for once, everyone having a unique super power is a sort of special snowflake thing) in exchange for having a wider array of more powerful abilities.

The tradeoff being, if you know how to counter the powers of one schnee you know how to counter the powers of all of them.

Basically, anybody who can beat one of them could probably beat all of them.
