Peace Talks - Continuity Notes [Spoilers]
Walter the skull:
Sanya can simply have added muscle mass by working out.
The thing about Harry and the BFS is interesting since it happens at the end of Skin Game. Another event that happened at the end of Skin Game that has now been changed was Murphy's prognosis. She went from being able to recover up to 90% mobility down to 50%. Come to think of it, Blood on His Soul is pretty much dead in Skin Game, but River says he's alive and out of Hades realm.
We also see the collection of other Harrys in Skin Game, and the book was originally supposed to follow Peace Talks was Mirror Mirror.
Hmm?
Arjan:
There is the explanation she gave in the book about her control. She can use it whenever she wish to but she can not always choose when not to.
the only explanation I can think of is that her measure control is variable and depends on things like how well she is fed and how much preasure she is under.
The other reason of course is that Jim wanted to show the protection.

It isn't mentioned, but there could be complications such as infections that could destroy tissue that cannot be replaced. Nic wiped the pavement with her, several nasties walked upon it just before, who knows what nasty microbes got into her wounds. Again, hate to harp on it, but her age, not that she is so old but she has been doing athletic things for over twenty years with some real heavy weights that puts wear and tear on joints, crippling osteoarthritis may have set in. We've seen many a "youngish" newly retired NFL Football player walking with canes because his joints and body just wore out. Not saying that did happen off page, but it is a realistic/ plausible explanation for her recovery going from 90% down to 50%.

But he was covered everywhere but his hands and head and neck in their dojo duel. I'm not sure any part of him touched her, did it?

You misunderstand, I mean when Nic beat up Murphy in the first place in Skin Game, she did have cuts and abrasions from hitting the sidewalk... Who knows what microbes were on the cement, everything from animal poop and urine to what ever anyone passing by had on the soles of their shoes, also the stuff they spread to melt ice.. So in these days of antibiotic resistant microbes, Murphy could have gotten one hell of a drug resistant infection, she might be lucky to have come out of it with all her limbs.. Since frequently doctors are forced to amputate to keep the patient alive.
She may not have developed the infection until after the doctors gave their 90% recovery. Doctors can be wrong, and she wouldn't be the first nor the last patient seemingly doing well suddenly go south..
