Thunder Primal?

So I noticed alot of people speculate Ramuh to be primal. Anyone stop to think why kind of beastman civilization worships a human form hermit. My best guess is that if anything, these beastmen wouldnt be beasts at all, more like robots or machine, ya know like he built them or something. Could fit in nice lore-wise right? Just wondering how many people thought that far ahead other than the devs and Mr. Yoshida.

----Edit

While I'm on the subject of primal/avatar/summon/whatever I'm assuming we're going to see more feral summons given to the summoner class. Carby for instance is a beast-type. Not to say that Ifrit and Garuda arn't. But if summoner job would possibly stem from a beast-masterish class then it would have pets like carbuncle, fenrir, phoenix, Ixion, Remora, Sylph, ect ect.

I'm hoping for Quezacotl personally. Or Ixion.

idk why but for some reason when Ramuh is mentioned i see a relationship between Kan-E-Senna's race.

Actually I see those two as more of Avatars for a summoner. Especially that of Ixion, because it would be cool to call him as a mount.

I'm not sure about a Robot race or how it would fit lore wise, since machinery like Magitek and the like are primarily Garlean, but it would make sense for Ramuh actually -- Lore wise throughout FFs that actually fleshed out summon stories, he was always more of a neutral entity (being a hermit and all) so a race or even singular person could easily create a pact with him.

Well I say it's nice lore wise cuz I'm actually am saying it would be in the area of garlean country. Maybe maybe not, but I'd like some magic robot enemies sprinkled in :p

EDIT:

Also I base this on FFXI kinda. Ramuh was the leader of a prosperous technological city. So yeah I'd say it makes sense for him to be some kind of magical robot making hermit that is god in the eyes of his creations.

The god Rhalgr seems very Ramuh-like already. And given all the pony sigs, I can't help but sense some serious meme kindling with an Ixion primal. :p

I for one thinks Sylph's primal are Ramuh based on their symbol, and since they are rather friendly to everyone, i feel it's ok lore-wise to worship a bearded hermit that lives inside a forest.

This is going to seem very anti-WoW but forget any other 'mounts', steeds or what-have-you but Chocobos.

Lightning based summons in order of my preference.

1. Adrammelech - awesome, but unlikely since no other Ivalice summons exist in the game (yet)
2. Quezacotl - the stylish Ramuh replacement in FFVIII
3. Ixion - FFX, FFXI
4. Ramuh - The classic thunder summon who is the most likely to be in the game.. and is my least favorite of the classic summons.
