^I said AIM because I can't think to other reasonable explanation for that, even considering the large anoumt of effect AIM can have and that it is similar to telesma. Anyway, it's true that Mikoto's railgun greatly differs from real ones, which are more like that of Five Over.

Who knows, maybe he will explain it, if not in the series then in an interview or a databook. It wouldn't be the first time Kamachi takes his time to explain even minor stuff. Take Misaki's power as example, we have knows some of its applications since vol 16 and three years have passed since her appearance in Railgun but we still don't know how her power works.
