[snip: talking about interaction between an astral mage and a FB net]

|Good explanation, but you never stated what the net would do (float in

No, because the mage's astral form can't affect the
physical. But then you run into a problem because the net
falls flat to the ground. The mage's astral form can't
suspend the net in any way according to the rules. Now you
have the mage's astral form completely flattened between
the net and the ground. And if the mage can survive being
flattened then he can squeeze free. Unless, being
flattened like that causes really sucks and causes mind
numbing pain that won't allow the mage to take any actions
other than scream in horrific agony.

I think that GMs will just have to make a house rule to
handle some of the discrepancies. I'm leaning toward,
"Astral beings pass through anything that exists purely on
the physical and cannot interact with the physical." and
Fat Bacteria doesn't exist.
