Anyway on to something completly diferent.
Handwavium can't be blown up for great justice. We know this. But do our characters know this? And if so how, since it is established it can do property damage? I do not think most people will just go and shoot somebody to see if their shiney new disintergrator ray works. Not even the Professor, he would at least ask for volunteers first

So far we have been writing it as if the characters know. So here is my proposed quick fix:
1) making weapons with handwavium is hard. The results are quirkier than usual.
2) when you think you have sucseeded due to test on inanimate objects you probably stop testing
3) odd behaviors when attaking humans can be put down to quirks or handwavium-handwavium interactions, which are poorly understood at best.
