"It was in D:OS 1."

That's the reason why a lot of stuff was carried over from D:OS 1. It wasn't much good in D:OS 1 either. However, it does let you pick up paintings or shift barrels which you otherwise couldn't move, and that means lots of money.

Telekinesis should be recoded to allow the user to pick locks, pick pockets, open chests, and flip levers at a distance of [Max Telekinesis Range]. Then it would at least do what it's supposed to do.

EDIT: If Telekinesis cannot fulfill those basic functions, then it is in no way worth spending a precious once-every-four-levels Civil point.
