I wonder if this is becuase they gave an actual release date and found they didnt have the time to make the changes.

There are so many issues with them as it stands:

Redudant/clone powers, debuffs being far to strong for APPs, lack of core powers (no shield for MMs), and some powers being far to weak (link minds psi resist).

I'm with Mac and very disappointed with how the APPs/PPPs look to be released.

Nowadays I'm fairly sure the two are supposed to be on roughly a par (in theory anyway, and allowing for The Devs Hate Villains of course).
Patron pools sucked a lot until they had extra powers added in I13 (and many still aren't up to par with their hero counterparts). What's funny is that Positron said, early on, that the patron powers were better because "we revealed the numbers" (referring to the plaques in Grandville which give some, but not all, information about the powers).

I said that APPs are supposed to be better than PPPs

Yeah i agree : APPs and PPPs should be on par now.
