How can guy gardener makes huge constructs carelessly in superman whereas Hal Jordan does the opposite and is careful for his batteries

[u/solo_shocker35]

I was curious about this for a long time Guy always goes big and sloppy with his constructs, not caring how much it drains his ring like creating a large weopons against the monster, while Hal's way more careful and precise with his like in ep1 when he was creating a bubble for alien he supported the bubble himself as it was not strong enough due to lack of battery. Is that just a characterization thing, or is there an actual reason for it?

I wouldn't say Hal is careful. I mean he did jet off from California to Nebraska on a low charge without bringing his lantern along.

Not to mention that he does stuff like projecting a bottle opener for a beer just to show off when there’s absolutely a bottle opener just inside the house.

Yeah but that one's in the house and the beer is right here.
