Even the name is backwards - you shouldn't get spell-like abilities so much as ability-like spells that were created to try and fake certain natural abilities. And I find it no more weird to have magical creatures that could use natural affinities and biology for better charming than a human can manage by faking it via spells than I find it weird that a dragon, through its biology and magical affinities can breathe fire in a way no human wizard can manage by faking it via spells. The strength of wizards is versatility, not focus and specialism.</blockquote>
