Why do Eternal Punish and Ancient Gate differ from other types of banishing ARTS in the sense that they don't trigger Diabride's second ? Quoting Nihil:


 * 1) Your Diabride is affected by your opponent's Eternal Punish.
 * 2) Eternal Punish resolves, causing Diabride's power to become 0. Eternal Punish has now resolved.
 * 3) Diabride, still on the field, realizing she has been affected by your opponent's ARTS, triggers her second [Constant].
 * 4) However, due to the "0 power rule," Diabride is subsequently banished due to having 0 power. Again, this is not by Eternal Punish, but by a general rule.
 * 5) Diabride now attempts to activate her effect in the Ener Zone.
 * 6) However, Diabride's place of trigger (field) differs from her place of activation (Ener Zone).
 * 7) Because of this difference, Diabride's effect misfires and does not damage the opponent.

If I understand correctly, if Diabride is directly banished, the event order changes to


 * 1) Your Diabride is affected by your opponent's banishing ARTS.
 * 2) The ARTS resolves, banishing Diabride. The ARTS has now resolved.
 * 3) Diabride now attempts to activate her effect in the Ener Zone.
 * 4) Diabride's place of trigger (Ener Zone) does not differ from her place of activation (Ener Zone).
 * 5) Diabride's second activates and damages your opponent.

In other words, as long as a SIGNI was on the field before your opponent's effects resolve, any of its effects can trigger so long as the place of trigger and place of activation are the same.
