The domain wizard also freely learns that spell when he progresses (not that big an advantage for a wizard though). The domain wizard also casts those 10 spells at +1 caster level.Essentially you are correct this class variant does gain things without losing anything. without spcifically stating so this is essentially a replacement for a specialist wizard though. Since it must be taken at first level, cannot be changed and once prohibits a wizard from being both a specialist and domain wzard. So really comparing it to a specialist wizard is a good comparison and begs to use the comparison of a specialist wizard to a generalist wizard.</blockquote>
