One idea I'd like to put forward is that special traits and/or talents each of us has wind up getting exaggerated anime-style.
For example, my tendency to sneak up on people who've supposedly "opened their third eye" and completely fuzz out in their plain sight.
In other words, Fate would declare Ben to be a living AMF (Anti-Magic Field) emitter. Nowhere nearly as strong as The Numbers, but enough that he can effectively tank Nanoha and Fate's low to mid level attacks like Axle Shooter and all-but-completely confound their active search spells. (The effect is somewhat like the Red October's Caterpillar Drive that makes US Navy sonar computers think they're hearing magma displacements - they can find him, but they gotta be looking REAL carefully.)
This would have consequences later on during A's when Ben gets a lot more than he bargained for....
