And when the Cuckoos used telekinesis in the Bendis run (one of them drops a bowl on teen Iceman's head) that was Bendis being Bendis and ignoring continuity and how the powers of characters work.
IIRC, in Generation X, Emma is shown once unconciously levitating objects while sleeping, and the Cuckoos had telekinesis, but only while they had the Phoenix in the heart. When the Phoenix left them they lost their "extra" abilities and it even made them a bit depressed. That is how far it goes with Emma and telekinesis.
Since what happened in Gen X was never referenced again, it should be ignored.
I also think the Emma Jean body swap wasnt written by Claremont, because that is when the Hellions died, and Claremont wouldnt have done that.
