What makes a blue-haired version of SSJ interesting? To be honest my reaction to it was the same reaction I had to every AF palette swap transformation in the past. I could understand the reasoning behind it since it was an easy way to include new power-ups without actually designing new transformations but I never considered it very interesting or creative.

You consider chapter 16 and 18 to be less stupid and pointless?
I think fans sometimes forget that DBM is a fan comic. If there was an actual budget then most of these filler specials would be much shorter and better drawn. On the other hand, RoF is a continuation of the official story and had the highest budget of any DBZ movie but still gave us SSJ Blue, Golden Freeza, and was pretty pointless. You could go from BoG to the U6 saga and the only thing you would miss out on in RoF was the reveal of SSJ Blue which could've easily been revealed during the next saga.
I think RoF should only be compared to the thousands of other Freeza revenge fanfics out there and SSJ Blue to the other palette swap transformations. At least that's a direct comparison between several stories with an identical premise rather than comparing one story or concept to the filler of another.

Guys, I'm going to be straight with you. If you feel the show has gotten 'silly' ... it hasn't. You're just 'too old for this shit'. Seriously, 95% of the people in those boards do not fit the target demographic of the show, so don't expect the show to be 'everything you hoped for'. I'm referring to the people here who expect Super to be rich with dark moments, serious storytelling, meaningful characters etc etc. It won't. It's a show for kids. A show for kids being kids. Everyone in those boards has a manchild in him/her, clamoring to get out, and that's fine. But having unrealistic expectations (such as believing the show grew up alongside you) is naïve at best. Honestly, do you take seriously a story where the supposed God of Destruction halts his urges to blow up stuff in order to eat ice cream sundae? That's the show's silliness at full force, take it for what it is. The show hasn't matured one bit, so don't expect it too. Again, I'm not saying that's a bad thing. I'm saying *that* is DB and always will be.

What does that do with what I had said though about the stuff DBM has produced?
Chapter 16 and 18 are specials.
Again, what's your point? I know the exact reason the specials exist, I'm asking them if they think those chapters in particular were less pointless or not, considering they seemed to be talking about DBM as a whole

My point is:
Yeah, many of the specials are worse than episode of Bardock and SSJB. But, since they are specials, it doesn't matter.
Whether they are better or not, it means less for DBM than the Fake Namek arc means for DBZ.
It seems like buu gave the powerup and abilities to gotenks so that he could refine his skills for the big battles to come (Gast or XXI) by practising against him.
How did Boo get the dude's brain waves if all he did was absorb the armor?... Maybe when Eleim was engulfed Boo took a portion of his DNA as well.. Maybe.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.
Peace And Power MF DOOM!

He probably just read his mind with telepathy (like we have seen several characters do, even Roshi) and learned enough to replicate it with his natural body plasticity.

The fanfic has the detailed answers for you and it's a bit more complicated than that:
Spoiler:
"What can I do for you?" asked Buu in an amused tone, already knowing their motives.
"These men would like to recover the armor that you stole during your battle" began the Western Kaioshin.
"I earned it fair and square. Nowhere in the tournament rules does it state I could not absorb it."
He answered quick; he prepared his argument ahead of time to support his defense.
Xeniloum threw an interrogative glance at the Western Kaioshin, who immediately answered:
"Indeed, you are correct... However, they affirm that their armor is incredibly dangerous, and difficult to handle. They merely wish to get it back as soon as possible, in order to avoid an accident.
"Dangerous for somebody who does not know how to operate it." he retorted.
"What?" shouted Xeniloum. "You know how to use it?! That's impossible!"
"Calm down!" intervened the Kaioshin before diverting her attention to Buu. "I appeal to your 'fair play': return him his armor. If you wish to keep it, we will think it over at the end of the tournament."
Buu turned to Xeniloum.
"I know who Ginyû is. Because one of the members of Universe 8 is not in his true body.
Xeniloum raised an eyebrow and opened his mouth, however, no words came out. Buu blinked twice, then said:
"Sorry, I was elsewhere. If you want your armor back, you will have to go through me, just as you did in the ring.
With those words, he stood up, his body expanding on all sides, but then shriveled to become very fine, just as it was when he absorbed the armor during his match.
'In any case, I'm done with this armor. It will pose no problems if I return it.'
In front of Buu, the warriors of U19 hesitated.
"I will do it." said Xeniloum. "I won't miss my chance."
He was desperate to recover his armor at all costs in spite of what his comrades might think.
"Anytime!" said Buu, with a smile on his lips.
In the heat of the moment, Xeniloum wasn't sure what to do next: walk toward him? Run? Jump? He did a bit of all three. He took a firm step forward, then after a short dash, he sprang with outstretched arms as if he was protecting himself.
He had a small expression of dislike as he crossed his arms, a feeling which he had no time for during a fight. Then, a mysterious force caused him to uncross his arms, then hold them tightly to the sides of his body. Xeniloum closed his eyes until he felt the floor touch the soles of his feet. He opened his eyes and noticed with pleasure that he was once again wearing his armor. It had suffered no damage, in fact, it looked even better than before. Behind him, he heard his comrades insult Majin Buu: how long had it been before reappearing? Was this a trick? Nonetheless, he had retrieved his armor back.
On the other hand, Xeniloum didn't know that Buu had time to analyze his DNA, his digital fingerprints, eyepieces, his cerebral waves, and his Ki. All in all, everything of use within the armor. He had the time necessary to creat an exact replica. With the new data acquired, he would have no trouble using it in the future. Majin Buu resumed his normal shape and looked at the other three warriors and the West Kaioshin as well. They all stood up, none of them pointing out the deceit. With a snap of the fingers, Buu could reveal the armor and nobody would doubt it for a moment.
Xeniloum, with a smile, thanked Buu, the West Kaioshin doing the same. Eleim as well thanked him in order to set an example among the group, but the others weren't convinced. They still remained cautious and wary. Majin Buu smiled back at them and let them go. When the door was shut, his smile became even greater.
"Ah, finally! Let's see what I can do now after copying his cerebral waves! It should be most amusing.
