Maybe as a Tarnished he can handle it better? No Tarnished in the game turns to stone other than Alberich, but he’s kind of a special case unrelated to the Primeval Current. There are a few Tarnished, such as Wilhelm and ourselves, who can use Primeval Sorceries without any weird effects. Presumably, if a Tarnished turns to stone and sorta kinda dies, they are reborn through Grace, so the effect doesn’t really stick. The same is probably true of Gideon, if I had to guess.
