If one desires a diegetic explanation for stuff like this, surely the simplest way is just to quote the Bard: “There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” Magic secrets hidden from others is sort of par for the course with the faux-Hermetic way D&D wizards work.Or is the issue that some things, which would otherwise be just spells, have been implement as (effectively) "class features" for these spellcasters? Because I honestly don't understand what's the problem with printing core, useful, distinctive stuff on the creature itself. Doing so saves a lot of tedious page-flipping, or needing to print out an extra sheet with all the spells you need to know.</blockquote>
