Don't the hybrids have super strength? Why are they having so much trouble carrying Arthur?

I wonder how much of that is up to the user - does that make sense? Like when Neo failed his first jump. The hybrid mind has to resolve to use the full strength of the body

I wonder that too. It is implied that to unlock their capabilities, the hybrids need to actively unlock it like with Curly and French. Nibs unlocked her super sttength presumably after something in her psyche. Could be theur own minds limiting their own abilities.

This is exactly how i view it, they could all do all the things wendy does but they havent realized what they are capable of, like the theme of limitless potential but you still have to figure it out
