Why don't we just dump them into 4D space?

Artillery that Mami forcibly holds at storage size, designed to snap into shape when removed from the shield? They are made of ribbons with arbitrary material properties.

"Well, I've got nothing."
We could do that for big, mundane weapons (so long as we sheath them in grief, or they'll have issues with vacuum), but for anything with magic, endurance is a concern.
Speaking of enchantments, we need to provide Mami with a speckled-enchantment enchantment enhancer so she can reverse engineer it and then make a copy for herself so she can make more copies of it easier.

Freaking finally. Sereg's pushed for that idea since, like, 2015.

Mami's guns, or naval assets? For the former, Mami has her own space, although keeping a supply of her ribbons on us sounds useful, as for the latter... *googles* The Nimitz class of aircraft carriers (Gerald R Fords won't be active for another five years in universe) have a length of 1092 feet, or ~=333 meters. That's three times our control radius, so unless we're taking them piecemeal, no nuclear aircraft carriers for us. Or anything over 200m in overall length.
Although, if we could learn how to create a grief "portal" into 4-space; where anything on one side is in 4-space, anything on the other is in meatspace, and you can go through it one part of yourself at a time, like a pole going horizontally through a door.

Mami can make the carrying harness while we provide lift.

I've also been wanting to do that for a long time, but I was specifically leaving that citation out. It's a solid idea and we really do need to do it, just...

"Well, I've got nothing."
Hey, I've never opposed that particular notion.In fact, I've expressly put that idea into practice in a PMAS thing elsewhere...It's just, well, not come up when we've had the time.

Also on the subject of enchantments and grief, do you think we should test if enchanted grief does anything special if we take it outside our range and just... leave it there until it dissipates? Seeing as we haven't seen if it does anything special outside our range yet like raw grief tries to.

Hmm. Noticed this during my own re-read. Did we ever get around to telling Homura more about Symmetry Diamond? Because if not, we could do so next update relatively reasonably - it fits in with the promise to share relevant information, even.
Godwinson
"Well, I've got nothing."
And even if it doesn't, there's something where our powers could be handy.
"Okay, this is taking a long time, and going over the fine-details would take even longer. Could I have a sheaf of paper and a stack of pens, Homura? I'll just write everything down so you can go over it at leisure."
Use grief to then write down all the things at high speed.

"Well, I've got nothing."
No, clearly we need to make wings from some other magical fundamental, so we'll have the appropriate number of wings for a seraph.

... I mean, the obvious choice is Love, right?
Godwinson
"Well, I've got nothing."
Yeah, but if we go with that, then we'd have wings of Hope, Love, and Grief, which just breaks the triplet -- it's Hope, Love, and Faith.

What else is there? Are there any other emotions that could serve as a fundamental magical force?
Wraith!Not!Madoka did refer to human emotions as an "anomaly", I believe. What that implies about humanity's place, or the place of sapient life in general, in the universe...
Anyway, if all emotions are universal aberrations, then it follows that magic could derive from any emotion, right?
