The Recent final comic arc really showed the contrast well. To me, it just perfectly sums up why him getting powers is a waste. Yeah, he'll get "cooler" and "more powerful", but I feel that his experiences, all his training with Black Canary as an Underdog Fighter, overcoming his programming. All the development as his own person, Superboy, not the replacement clone of Superman, It'd all be completely wasted if they were to give him "Full" Powers.
