HP=moral+collateral damage, which would make it somewhat of a Hitman style strategy game to get done what you need to within the bounds of what Superman is... A giant moral pussy.
So while you can melt someone from space or fly through the building instead of around it, you cannot if you don't want him to die of sadness, and managing that when you easily can, is likely hard.
Now that’s a clever concept, very cool idea. It could even scale based on the difficulty or world-ending significance of the mission. Like, it’s okay if you cause a bunch of expensive damage by bursting through the roof to disarm a bomb because it’ll save a city block and hundreds of people. But you better not cause any damage or break any bones to save someone from a mugging.
