If you want to be like that, that doesn't work either.

Ebony gets its element naturally but uses it more efficiently if it has recently eaten, infusing chunks of its meal with the stuff to hack up at enemies.

Stygian gets its element in the exact same way regular Zin gets its electricity, from bugs, Dracophage in this case.

If you want to give Tobi a free pass because the way it gets its element is different, don't act like that logic doesn't work for these two either. They ain't the same, period.
