Glad you are undertaking this issue. I also thought that Clark's response to green kryptonite was inconsistent in the show. Glad to see another story dealing with the consequences of that cage in a more realistic scenario. I always wondered how Clark changed his clothes without his superpowers in that episode. It will be interesting to see how his absence from the street affects everyone else. Hopefully, he can beat the gang to his apartment and become Clark again before they arrive.
I also have a story that addresses this topic languishing unfinished on my drive. Minds thinking alike...
