    The devs seem to be very afraid of their player base being stupid if you recall the reason they gave for not giving us the right click -> Blacklist in chat box at first: "Players may accidentally blacklist friends." They went back on that, so, they're not completely adamant on these things, but stubborn? Oh yes. Very much.
    Off Topic: You really should go back and review Ferne's post if you think it boiled down to "we think the players are stupid, so we're going to use I, II, III, IV" as the reasoning included lack of consistency between suffixes and spell effects across different schools of magic, and went beyond just spell naming conventions.

    On Topic: Glamour. It's a word often associated with magic and illusions in English folk tales, so I say roll with it.
