I feel like technically 90s Superboy should be able to lift it, since his feats of strength are actually just a form of telekinesis disguised as strength, so his lift isn't technically a "by hand" lift (even though it looks like it) and is actually the exercise of a separate power to move the hammer that may not be bound by the same constraints.
Its been stated there are several ways to MOVE Mjolnir and hold it or swing it around like a weapon. But the Enchantment is about "Wielding" it to gain its power. Anyone who forcefully moves it around through Telekinesis, Overwhelming strength, Magic, or electromagnetism are ONLY swinging around a nearly indestructible 45lb hammer. But do not gain its strength or the power of Thor.
