[QUOTE="Ohmyn, post: 7624604, member: 6999115"] I wasn't trying to be hostile, and I apologize if it seemed that way. I was simply adding further points that I felt appropriate to add. For example, I wasn't certain of what was being implied with the parenthesis. I thought maybe the bracket was because there is more than one way to interpret what the PHB says, so I felt like clarifying that the Sage Advice confirms which interpretation is official. EDIT: Whoops, forgot to add a note. Let's not give them too much credit here. They didn't [I]explain[/I] the belief system in the proficiencies section. They did us even worse. They didn't explain it at all, but rather added a small footnote in the proficiencies section. Actually, Sage Advice is not a correction. Errata are official corrections. Sage Advice is official clarification of the current rules as written. WotC states in the compendium that they are the official rules. They're every bit as binding in a fully RAW setting as errata. Or rather they should be, but it seems it's been only since 2018 that WotC has added the note about the Sage Advice being official, and AL hasn't updated their rules since March of 2017, so they still claim it as RAI.
