You don't hear much about Present Sight as a super power. Technically speaking, there's almost no practical use to forseeing the Future. It's so malleable as to be useless.
Prognosticating the Past can have Loads of uses and could save a lot of lives. There's so much that gets forgotten or hidden in the past.
But seeing what's happening Now?! All at once?!!? To be able to see into any room in the planet, no matter where you are could have so much use! Just flipping Presents like channels in your eyes can do so much! "Wait, Mr. President let me check..... Nope, Soviets are fine, just trying to manage their own government. A bit of underhanded spy work but mostly against themselves. ….Wait, wait... Yes, Mexico's aiming something at us. Doesn't look very functional though. Might wanna send someone.
...aaaaand… Yes, do think that's a massive, scary black cloud forming over Europe. Probably prioritize that."
...Admittedly, that would mean you would also technically be fully disconnected with your current surroundings on account of tuning into to all of your planet at once. But hey, free entertainment and I'm like that anyway.

The fun times begin when you gain the ability to see into the future - but strictly the future of other universes. Is this near-identical universe going to turn out the same as ours will? Will it turn out completely different due to that one butterfly that flapped its wings weirdly? Why is this universe where Russia is populated by unicorns progressing on an identical political path to the one where Donald Trump is a communist? It's like a sitcom but existentially terrifying due to the apparent irrelevancy of human agency!

Are you saying Trump ISN’T a communist?! I’m sorry, that was bad of me... to assume Communist means “Really Mean Person.”
But there, you just admitted Future Sight was irrelevant. You’re technically just having vivid hallucinations at that point.
It is the highest attack Psychic move though.
