    Probably they don't have a field "This target casts magic" in their database. That's the reason why they used the "This target has MP" as discriminating variable.
    Supposing this is true, to solve this issue they would need to update the database for ALL the targets and add a new field. Seems highly unlikely to happen if you ask me.
    It might be possible to check for the spell count though. Any caster has a spell list. Crabs have MP, but no spell list. NIN or BRD mobs have no MP but a spell list. The problem might be in the difference between JAs and spells though. If both are internally the same thing, just using different resources, then a spell list count would need a SilenceableCount...

    So yeah, it's complex.

    they were able to fix the issue with Fellows, so I see no reason why it can't be easily done with puppet
