At his level, absolutely. Reed isn't high meta for his powers alone, for example. His mind contributes to his overall power level even in-battle.
And if we're getting technical, we get standard equipment, which would include a Legion flight ring. I don't think any 5-pointers can fly and survive in space.

As for the Leech argument, Cortez would lose in H2H vs. a no-power street level character. Doesn't mean he doesn't have power/usefulness beyond 5 pts. (or 10, or 15, etc. etc.). Same with Leech. Turns off powers. Not just mutants, iirc. If that's 5 pts. Well. It's not. ill can make his ruling, but a 6-yr-old mentality doesn't make up for his considerable power. You have my opinion.

Pre-crisis legion did some insane stuff. It's not exactly a depowered Brainy compared to current.
But how would you know? You don't read comics, just make ill-informed decisions based off of peoples' comments. Come back when you have something to add.
