I suppose one could argue that this is evidence of correct balancing. :)
The 8th level spell Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting deals slightly less damage than a Fireball cast from an 8th level slot. Of course, a lot of creatures are immune to or resist fire, but A-DHW grants two creature types flat immunity.
