Steve,
On page 405 of 5er there is an example given under Normal Damage Weapons in Superheroic Campaigns. bottom right hand corner of page.
This example is supposed to illustrate how weapons just add to the str damage, even if it is more than the double of the wepon damage. It fails.:thumbdown
The str is 20 (4d6 hth) and the weapon is 6d6 for a total of 10d6. This fails to illustrate the point you are trying to make here because the total damage is less than twice the weapon damage. The example would make more sense if the 2 dice sets were switched: i.e. a 30 str (6d6 hth) and 4d6 weapon for a total of 10d6.
You should sentence whoever's job it was to catch this to have to spend time with Foxbat and listen to him explain his Master Plan(tm). for hours on end.:eg:
