I think that's the point. Air is the only natural element of the big 4 (fire, water, Air, and earth) That does not have a sub element. Air is more closely linked directly to electricity than fire is. I have no idea why electricity and fire are linked together in any series aside from avatar. The elements have little relation to one another other than very few rare cause and effect instances.

The closest thing I can think of aside from electricity is sound as gunmetal said. Air makes up for the lack of a sub element by being ridiculously broken by itself if unrestrictes. Air boundary alone can really hamper the other elements. Air is not affected by temperature differences. You cannot overheat air and you cannot "freeze" air. Heck air can exist in space it's just rapidly dispersed and consolidated in the closest atmosphere but if you are capable of creating your own atmosphere or using the void you are good among other abilities
