Dude, I understand just fine. In all the cases you
listed, an Entropomancer can tell by the very fact
that he doesn't get a charge from it that there's no
danger. Entropomancy CAN be used as a sophisticaed
danger sense.
And Cliomancy can be used as a kind of yes/no
postcognition. And dipsomancy is a kind of toxin
sense. After all, as is graciously countered in the
initial UA book, the root -mancy does have to do with
detection.
This is why I encourage metagaming, so the next time
you get a player, they'll be thinking about what's
happening to them on as many levels as possible.
