I agree that shows Franklin has powerful psionic abilities, specifically it shows that he is a high order telekinetic but it doesn't necessarily mean his telepathy is strong. Altering matter and energy to create entire universes is an awesome feat, but he may simply be a telepath by default and not as skilled as Xavier and Frost in its use.

Sure Jean Grey was a powerful telepath but she had been trained for years in its use by Xavier.

I add as further evidence that skill matters that the "psychic circuit breakers" placed in a technically more powerful Franklin's mind were put there by Xavier.
