I think in a future game, I'd like to see a reasoning that the Chaos Emeralds can only be used by Anthropomorphics, Black Doom, machines, and deities because of some inborn connection or harnessing ability that Humanity lacks. That's why we never see Eggman turn omnipotent anywhere outside STC. Not that it wouldn't be interesting, if he found a way. I'm thinking he can try by absorbing such a connection from Sonic or someone else. Oops, another spoiler.
