We don't know that sa'angreal takes forkroot into consideration, so it might just enhance Egwene's true ability.
Or it might be as mentioned in this post:
[quote]Brandon said at the SLC Q&A, in response to a question about whether the Choedan Kal magnifies the user's power, that "my understanding is that it is a reservoir of power. It is not necessarily a magnification. A very weak person with a very powerful sa’angreal is very powerful." So rather than magnifying the channeler's power, a sa'angreal seems to allow the channeler to hold a total amount of power. That is, a sa'angreal grants the same amount of saidar/saidin to the user regardless of the user's strength. In contrast, an angreal seems to magnify the power available to the user. [/quote]

Maybe that's the greater difference between angreal and sa'angreal *NM*

I think sa'angreal are so powerful that even with a marginal Circle, it created an awesome reservoir

That does not necessarily prove the novices are affected - they can sense the amount of the Power

This occurs because it is a sa'angreal

That "mistake" is in character for Egwene. You have the dream ter'angreal wrong, BTW.

I thought only one sa/angreal can be used by a channeler at a time, so no double dipping *NM*

technically, it is an angreal and a ter'angreal, so not two sa/angreal *NM*

Novices are likely to overdraw if given such a fount of power. *NM*
