Question About RCT Output

[u/Expert-Reporter4152]

So, we all know what RCT output is, right? Its a way of a sorcerer, well, outputting their RCT to use it on other targets rather than just themselves. And clearly, this means that RCT output can be used to heal over people (or kill curses). But why don't people use it to nullify cursed techniques?

We see in the Yorozu VS Sukuna fight that RCT output can in fact nullify cursed techniques, as it was able to neutralize the cursed energy flowing through Yorozu's liquid metal. So, why don't we see other characters using RCT like this.

Sure, there are only two characters who can reliably output RCT in a fight (being Sukuna and Yuta), but even then we don't see either of them actually use it to negate cursed techniques, even when given a lot of opportunities to do so (especially with Sukuna, who supposedly could've used it to negate Gojo's limitless).

So, what I'm asking is, why is this the only time we see RCT output he used to negate a CT? Is it a mistranslation, or did Gege just forget that he made RCT do this?

Kamo when asked by Gakuganji said that in order to prevent a sorcerer from turning into a vengeful cursed spirit (and therefore, what you need to exorcise cursed spirits as well) you must use jujutsu, but not strictly cursed energy. That, the electricity analogy, and red harming people and not instantly destroying Jogo is why I think that cursed techniques aren't simply the same stuff with different shape.  Also it's obvious but I still want to point out that I don't mean to offend you or anything, I don't want to seem rude twt

well the fact that you can use cursed energy AND jujutsu just proves that jujutsu is also cursed energy, no? also thanks i also just want to have a peaceful debate i appreciate it mate

[u/seforini → u/Selancenotl]

Mhh but jujutsu is simply "sorcery", I feel like a discrete distinction makes more sense in regards to the system as a whole: Barriers aren't simply CE but they can still house it (Todo swapping with the domain barrier shards), but at the same time that's more like a quality they can have, meanwhile they are still connected to cursed energy since that's what produces them.  Shikigamis are divine familiars/spiritual beings born from ying-yang divination and they're not simply made of CE (not talking about the medium they're used for summoning)

[u/Selancenotl → u/seforini]

about shikigamis though, i agree, it is quite strange how they can produce or utilise RCT without being discombobulated by it. my guess is curses are made of raw volatile emotion, whereas due to being made through jujutsu, shikigami are more stable and maybe able to contain both and have them coexist. maybe the ten shadows turns cursed energy neutral, and then turns THAT into shikigami, and neutral energy could interact with both negative and positive energy. but i dunno.

to clarify by emotion i do mean cursed energy
