Right, it's not the Special Alternate Power that's in contention. That's a freebie that works as a third linked power with Speed and Quickness at no more than 2pp/rank. According to UP, the alternate powers should also be restricted to 2pp/rank, but they currently are not. They provide a pool of points up to the cost of the parent power (5pp/rank or more for Time Control).

Essentially, it should work as an Array with Super-Speed as the base power and a third power of the player's choosing added for free. Even though Super-Speed is 5pp/rank, everything else should be restricted to 2pp/rank.

I guess the Core book isn't clear on this issue (since arrays in Core used parent cost for the array pool), but UP explicitly states that the array for Super-Speed provides 2pp/rank. So it'd have to be changed if UP is being utilized.
