In Forsaken, Will Power Level Actually Increase your Power vs Only Decreasing your weakness?

So far, Power level has only been a glorified progression gate, slowly allowing you to not be too weak in certain activities, but beyond that (from what I've learned) you gain no advantage when your power level is over the minimum requirement. Is that still going to be how power levels work in Forsaken? Edit: I don't think we should steam role night fall or raid bosses (although that would be fun near the end of a season), but being 10+ the minimum requirement should have noticeable impact without having to bust out a calculator and carefully measure each damage number to figure out the advantage. You don't want us to over power an activity too much? Set the requirement really high. Easy peasy.

    Short answer is no. They now offer better rewards if you tackle content under-levelled but, that scenario stinks of BS. Case in point. If I'm Power 500 and I do a power 560 mission am I going to get Power 520 gear while at power 560 I get power 561 gear? I then equip my 520 gear and start to receive 525 gear because I'm now less "Under-powered". Thus the climb slows down to a crawl the nearer I am to the level of the content?!?! This seems to be what Bungie described (and in such a way that they made it sound like they were doing you a favour). What this means is that the grind to 600 is going to be excrutiating!
