All in all the night would have ended better for almost anyone if he'd just got himself to the chapel ahead of time. Seriously who calls a super to rescue a cat out of a tree. Isn't that what fire fighters are for? Or neighborhood kids.
I think it's like calling the fire department. You're mobilizing all
that power for such a trivial problem when, as you say, any able-bodied
person in your neighborhood would do as well. Given that people HAVE
called the fire department to rescue their cats, I see nothing terribly
odd about supers being asked to.
But you're right, it'd have been better if he'd just finished rescuing
the cat and then gotten to the church.
On the other hand, it seems to me that the point of that sequence was
that the culture was poised and ready to try banning the supers, and it
just happened to be THAT sequence of events; the same thing would've
happened some time later, and probably not much later.
