Silver Surfer is a soulless abomination:
The power cosmic EATS YOUR SOUL, and replaces it.
Considering immortal souls are a real thing in Marvel comics, that's pretty much the worst news ever for Surfer. It means he's no more Norrin Radd then Swamp Thing is Alec Holland. Except, Alec's soul is bumming around the afterlife, while Norris's was eaten by a soul parasite.

Chi amping and the Iron Fist amping are often treated as different things.
The Immoral Iron Fist series established Danny actually taps into the dragons chi, as a stream taps into the ocean.
The dragons has driven off full Phoenix Force.
Yet Danny could not handle Phoenix Five Scott.
