BTW, refresh my memory: the initiate at the Black Tower - was he able to create large gateways or just small ones?
Gateways and shields are two things that are influenced by the channeler's strength according to several sources in the books, Androl's gateways breaks that rule. He should not be able to make gateways let alone bigger than anyone else's.
The Kin woman's shield bent instead of breaking when Nyaneve tried to break it. Shields break when you push on them, not bend. So not just the weave, but behavior of the weave as well.

I don't find it all that complicated of far fetched

seems to me a non-sentient entity would be less likely to give abilities to a specific individual

No worries - 'thinking out loud' and going on tangents are my favorite hobbies here

I don't think they are supposed to make 'sense', really. Maria gave info about Talents in a Q&A

It doesn't break the rule so much as shows that the rules aren't as universal as we thought
