Because a shinsoo bomb uses pure shinsoo as it’s attack.
A gum bomb sticks regardless of Shinsoo resistance the same way a bullet proof vest doesn't protect you from handcuffs. Even If both the bullet and the cuffs are made of the same material.
As I said... it's shinsoo in its core. We are made of oxygen (65% by mass), carbon (18%), hydrogen (10%), nitrogen (3%), calcium (1.4%) and phosphorous (1.1%), Hydrogen + Oxygen make water, what is 70% of our body. Water can dissolve dirty, for example, but when we touch on dirty it get dissolved? No, because we don't behavour like water, once "transformed" water, not pure crystaline water. The CORE is shinsoo, but the things does not behaviour as pure shinsoo, once it is "transformed" shinsoo.
I see what you’re trying to do but the bomb’s fire/explosion should be the same as if a Regular made an explosion with shinsoo. But then swords are the same...
I was 100% with you until this morning when I started to wonder about shinsoo based attacks that are turned into something.
It’s difficult to say... like Baam avoided Zahard punches with his shinsoo resistance/reinforcement, no? I think for flames is the same, it could be avoided by shinsoo or physical resistance. It’s actually a combination of both. The bomb case I suppose he just caught Baam off guard.
Even if it doesn’t, shinsoo replaces water and we know that bodies are 70% water. This means that all the tower residents are at least 70% shinsoo.
We have no idea what people in the tower are made of cause it's a fantasy world, it doesn't need to follow the same rules as the real world. Also there are many non human characters, (actually has the term human even every been used in ToG? Androssi has a horn... Who knows if Bam even has a penis) how much of their bodies are made of water?
That was actually said at about the time the gang made it to the floor of death. Its also pretty much the reason the gang didn't drown.
I'll reread it later but my theory has been that admins are made entirely out of shinso. I do remember that they said the concentration of shinso on the floor of death is very low, of an admin died there, shouldn't the concentration be higher cause it's blood free flowed everywhere?

Some attacks such as Floral Airwave don't require Shinsoo to be converted to any substance, so I take It that Shinsoo resistance is still relevant.
No, that instance proves that pretty much anything can be a shinsoo quality. The point is not that everyone necessarily has a shinsoo shape, rather that everyone's shinsoo has things it is suited for and others that it isn't suited for. In miseng's case, her shinsoo is suited to that shinsoo boost thing, which by all appearances is a type of reinforcement. The series has shown that there are different types of shinsoo reinforcement. Bam for instance learned reinforcement in the time skip between season 1 and 2 and then he learned a different type of reinforcement from the GoGs at the hell train.
Well, yeah you said it, the Ha being skilled in shinsu strenghtening doesn't mean shinsu strenghtening is a quality just like lighthouse control isn't a quality in Tu Peri's case.
What? How does that make any sense? It's EXTREMELY likely that the ha's shinsoo qualities are exactly shinsoo reinforcement. Hence why they excel at it. We know for a fact that the ha are particularly good at it. Yurin was even the first one of the warriors to use shinsoo to reinforce her body according to the lore. It makes perfect sense that Ha's shinsoo is uniquely suited to reinforcement. I am surprise someone who disagrees with something so basic even exists at this point...
Edahn literally explained it as such.
Orb is a shinsu shape not quality.
Yeah, but every one and their mothers knows how to use shinsu strengthening, in contrast, among the FHs, only Edahn can use the lithening spear, only Jahad can use the golden needle, only Hon can use the Arie sword and the list is long.
He did not...
