Reduced Negation question

Since there are no Advantages like Hardened that can be applied to Damage Negation to resist the effects of the Reduced Negation Adder on an attack power, could it be legal to buy a limited form of Damage Negation that could then only be used to resist Reduced Negation?

In the rules as they currently exist, there’s no way to “harden” Damage Negation to counteract the Reduced Negation Adder. But this is the HERO System, so we can find a way to do anything! As an optional rule, a character can buy the Adder Enhanced Negation for Damage Negation. Each +2 Character Points spent on Enhanced Negation counteracts one “level” of Reduced Negation.
