SRII page 224, in the description of the elemental spirits, it's mentioned
that air elementals can "be confided by airtight seals in containers of
remarkably small size" as one of its weaknesses. It doesn't say they take
damage from it, though in PAoE the critter stats at the back give
"Confinement" as a weakness. I think that's a shorthand way of saying the
text I quoted from SRII. The Grimoire also doesn't mention this
Confinement weakness, so my guess is that it's not really a
disadvantageous weakness, except that the spirit won't like it when forced
to sit in a small gas bottle.
