Distortion has already been proved. One of the explanations is that you reprogram all the energy signatures to another state than the one they were programmed by someone else. Let's say that one sends a psiball to you, that requires the energy to be ordered to remain condensed(more or less), while the distortion will reprogram the energy to it's original state, via as said above, willpower, visualization etc. Though several abilities can defy this law.

Now for the 'talking' for manipulation. Well that's just an unique way of commanding your mind to exacute an ability. It's a nicer way indeed, animation would make everything a bit more comfortable to use, and again, it can differe, as said above.
