This is less a rebuttal and more an agreement with my point. If there are solid, reliable options available to you, you are much more empowered to slot in quirky weird things because the opportunity cost is slim. As stated: it becomes much less a dull calculation, and much more a value judgment. Those Draconic Heritage/etc. feats gave you the freedom to be weird with your spell picks, because you could always fall back on damage options if needed. Reserve feats would give you effectively inexhaustible cantrips so long as you keep an appropriate spell memorized. Etc.Game design which encourages value judgment as the primary drive of character-building is, in general, preferable to game design which encourages mere calculation.</blockquote>
