Angels' true form

How come in seasons 4-5, whenever someone looks at an angel's true form (e.g. in the bar with Michael), their eyes burn out and they die, but in seasons 10-12 (when angels appear as white smoke), everyone can look at them just fine? I though it was because the angels lost their wings (as this page says), but even Lucifer appears as smoke and he still has his wings - right?

It's probably worth to mention this issue here http://supernatural.wikia.com/wiki/Canon_Discrepancies . It appears to be an inconsistency. When Lucifer escaped his cage for the first time at the beginning of season 5, his true form looked very bright. This light was certainly not generated by the cage itself as Michael also looked pretty bright in his true form. The writers seem to have forgotten about this. --91.89.184.182 23:09, February 23, 2017 (UTC)
One thing I've never been able to wrap my head around; how to angels exist in Heaven? I mean, if they don't have bodies, how can they fight and use physial weapons (angel blades)?Jmac 703 (talk) 02:37, March 26, 2017 (UTC)
Because animating the true form of an angel would be hard. (They're said to be at least Chrysler Building height, would be tough to animate)
So basically it's just for audience convenience. Kaestal (talk) 04:33, March 26, 2017 (UTC)
So I can understand that, but if they are so big, then why are all their weapons so small?Jmac 703 (talk) 06:13, March 26, 2017 (UTC)
