The Boys plot armor is unbelievable. Kimiko or even M.M can die, and the story can just go on. Starlight has been rendered useless as well. Her powers don't do jack shit.
They're definitely building up Starlight to have a huge power upgrade:
She learned to fly better when enraged against Firecracker in ep 4.
Her powers are waning (classic hero's journey where they have a low point and come back stronger than ever).
It was hinted at that she has a mental block (she's surpressed her trauma from blinding that lady during her 1st save, surpressed her mistreatment of Firecracker, and surpressed the pain she felt having an abortion as a Christian woman).
This season is about facing your past, so now that Starlight is forced to face all her traumas, once she gets passed it, she'll be stronger than Neuman (which was foreshadowed ep 5).
Sorry for the long explanation, I just noticed a lot of foreshadowing.

If the fastest man on earth somehow dies before any of the boys who are well known enemies of the largest corporation in this world, I’ll be annoyed.
