As someone who has worked up mage and psychic classes for my own system, and have always considered them separate things (arcane magic vs. psionic/psychic powers, that is), it is kinda a pain/inelegant to have to have an array of "Wizard/Mage classes" and then...the Psychic as just an "additional" class since it doesn't lump in with Warriors or Rogues or Priests or Mages...really.So it may simply be, in an attempt to be elegant and "simple"...they are lumping the psion in with the Mage classes. So you'd be able to have a "Mage-Wizardry style + Traditions", "Mage-Sorcery style + Origins [or Bloodlines or whatever]", "Mage-Psionic style + [just guessing/off the top of my head] Disciplines" to allow for a "Telepath" or a "Telekinetic" or a "Seer/Clairvoyant" etc...But yeah, I don't like it at first glance because, for me, those with innate mental powers were never the mage/wizard guys. They were/are psychics/psions/psionicists/insert class name of choice.</blockquote>
