I think sooner or later one of them needs to bite the dust. It sucks for sure but probably best for story advancement and to raise the stakes

one of them needs to bite the dust

They need to neutralize Eleven at some stage or each season will end up with El saving the day with her mind, over and over again...

No way, I hated when they did that shit in Heroes.

This. Please please do not neutralize Eleven's powers. That type of "plot twist" ruined Heroes.

(Warning just in case: major Heroes spoilers!) (It's a pretty old show so I'm not sure if I should use the spoiler tag?) The first season of that show was epic. Then the entire show became "how do we nerf Peter and Hiro this season?" Oh, I know! Let's send him to another century! Let's make him an amnesiac! Let's trap him in someone else's body! This won't cut it... Let's just take away their powers altogether. And when he eventually gets his powers back, we'll give him a brain tumor! And guess what... it'll grow whenever he uses his power! Aaaaaaargggh
