Default Wish Abuse?

Is there a limit to how high you can up your commander stats with "power" wish?

And if it's the same as the Dom I wish, your commander doesn't get extra magic resistance so he can still get zapped with insta-kill spells.
Or pass out from fatigue, or get cursed, ect. ect. ect.

I don't think wish 'power' stacks...sure you can use it more then once but your stats never go up past the first time..or at least thats the way it seems to me and I just tested it....

you see it as an abuse because you are in a single player, comfortably swimming in a sea of gems, and having already won against AI without you wanting to give the death blow

Am I right?
Because in MP its a big trade off. 100 gems for a magical skill, wow!
Anyway in MP I prefer to let uber alchemy kick in with the wish. 100 astrals give you 175 gems, or if you prefer 75 astrals leading to 6 packs of 25 gems. Thats exactly the reverse of standard alchemy where you have to spend 2 astrals for one gem. cool, quick and efficient (but not an abuse too).
