Vulture siphon ability: is this a bug or not?

Whenever Vulture applies one of his two siphon energy effects to an opponent a portion of the power they gain is converted either to chitauri energy or burn damage.
Sometimes this is really awesome as it prevents them from reaching 3 full bars of power. They gain a little energy and then a little is burned away making max power always out of reach. This is really cool against certain enemies like Mordo, Vision, and Hyperion and I'm pretty sure that it was intended to be this way as Punisher 2099, Green Goblin, Stark Spidey and Doctor Octopus also seem to have been designed as counters to these dominant AW defense champions.
However... sometimes even with one of these siphon debuffs applied... the opponent is still able to get to 3 power. Not always. Just sometimes. And I can't figure out any consistent reason why. Sometimes it happens when I do a heavy attack, but not always. Sometimes when they have a passive power gain, but not always.
Is this a bug? Or is it supposed to randomly work sometimes and not at others?

His sp2 causes damage when they get power. It doesn't "drain" power from the enemy
I think this is incorrect.
First of all Sp1 debuff "drains" power and Sp2 debuff "burns" power- but both things result in the enemy losing power. Vision "burns" power.
Second, I'm almost positive that I have used Vulture and had my opponent reach power 3 with the first debuff applied. I'll try again just to make sure.
no that's not what I mean. I've seen them reach power 3 and stay at power 3.
