@ PNAoE, p. 127: "The alienation power allows a being to shroud its

It doesn't mention ultra-sound, so that is an added bonus. Huh!
Okay, okay I concur, the alienation power effects the individuals
mind hence there would be no bonus from something like ultrasound,
but what about an individual who is watching through a camera say in
the next room vs someone sitting 50 miles aways.

What about drones (the ones that don't require about 200kg of
life support equipment ;)).
