Amplification (mitigation) is the increase (decrease) in the change of thermodynamic quantities when an initial thermal state is thermalized to a different temperature in the presence of constraints, studied thus far only for permutationally invariant baths. In this manuscript, we generalize amplification and mitigation to accommodate generic strong symmetries of open quantum systems and connect the phenomenon to Landauer's erasure. We exemplify our general theory with a new bath-induced battery charging protocol that overcomes the passivity of KMS-preserving transitions.
