What's worse is it neglected to mention Food Chain and Decay too. Both of those effects are critical to the story too. Rimuru uses Deviant to fused Predator and Starved into Gluttony, and Gluttony has Starved's effects in the form of Decay and Food Chain. Decay degrades the body with a chance for a stolen skill, which he uses against Clayman to steal Puppeteer from him, and he uses Food Chain to basically use his subordinates technique, like Hell Flare, Death Storm, and Arcane Thread Fetters.

Food Chain is particularly broken, because Rimuru can use it to pile up skills from his subordinates and create new skills from them too. That's how he creates Covenant King Uriel after all, but combining Infinite Prison, Multilayer Barrier, Spatial Transfer, and Secluded Space all into one Ultimate Skill.
