I would think 99% of mutants would be the equivalent of The Legion of
Substitute-Heroes. So no speedsters, flyers, underwater
mutants.....just Turn Flower Color Boys and Pretty Lights Girls.

So I would think there would only be a handful of mutants killed.

As for turning human, I think that's bunk. Reminds me of when Mystique
lost her blue fur (or skin) a while back.
