This is how the Bene Gesserit have always been from the original novel. The Dune universe has several of these societies: the Bene Gesserit, the Mentats, the Tleilaxians (I probably misspelled the last one; I didn't go check). There is an argument to be made if this, or other "origin" series/movies are needed, but blame Frank Herbert in 1965.

The novel Dune begins in the year 10,191. That is not AD or CE. That is from the Butlerian Jihad. Now, it is never explicitly said how long a year is in the Imperium (at least I don't recall seeing that), nor, as far as I know, was it ever mentioned when the Butlerian Jihad began relative to our current calendar. However there is no reason to expect that the Imperial year differs any more than 10% one way or other.

Iterations would work equally well.

I assume you mean "incarnations?"

Several Eastern rite Catholic churches are in union with Rome and participate in Conclaves.

Actually, I disagree. In most comic book physics, super strength does not imply invulnerability, though it does imply toughness. I haven't read comics regularly in two decades. (the monetary outlay was getting too large). However, from what I remember, Wonder Woman can be injured, whereas Superman and Supergirl cannot (at least not by most mundane weapons.) So, she does need the bracelets to avoid being injured by bullets.

A bit late, but Barty Crouch states it is a magical contract. He does not have a choice. It is not spelled out what would happen if he tried to withdraw, but I think it is likely nothing good.

Likely because Home Alone 2 is set in the US where the phrase "Merry Christmas" is most common and Harry Potter is set in Britain where the phrase "Happy Christmas" is most common. I would say Mr. Columbus was cognizant of these facts and used the correct phrase in each film.

You apparently missed the lines in the very first episode that Angela designed what is now called the Angelatron system. (patent pending). So, while she is an artist, she is also a geek and has been since the beginning. Just because her area of expertise is different from Brennan's/Hodges/Addy/Saroyan doesn't mean should could barely understand scientific principles. I have an engineering degree. You wouldn't want me cutting up a body or doing chemistry. But designing an instrument to help with those things is a different story.
