I also took it for granted that opponents in gauntlet could use any talisman set, especially in SS and SSS. The problem that many see is when they can have 2 sets of talisman that are 5 or 6 sets each, unless they have cosmics with these augements.

They also indicate that they try not to have almost duplicate teams in SSS levels. Its almost a given, the first team in SS and SSS are the same.
