to channel plenty of effects while on forkroot ... like creating lights and rings etc... while splitting her flows 14 ways. Seems to me that Egwene is prone to a touch of hyperbole here ... much like when Nynaeve says things like she was so tired she couldn't "light a candle" then goes on to Heal taint insanity.
The effects Egwene creates are also very very weak, being barely bright enough. And she makes a clear statement that if she flicked Idrelle's ear, the Accepted wouldn't even feel it. No way she'd say that if she's holding enough to wave a piece of cloth.
We've seen this so many times throughout the series it seems obvious to me ... not that it really makes a difference to any of this
