Int +1 extra spells is not to be sneered at. However it comes at a heavy price.On the flip side, they never go down, and you do get cantrips and a lot more spells known to cast with those slots, even if you dont get more slots.
An EK taking a level of Wizard at levels 4 and 5 (not affecting his spell slots) however his spells known goes from [4 spells known], to [4 plus Int plus 1], and with the [Int plus 1] coming from a wider list.
Plus he technically already gets an extra slot due to Arcane Recovery.
