You don't see the pointlessness in that?

Instead of using one button to attack (fire) you just spam practically the same thing that is ice or lightning. Just pointless extra abilities that are fight specific. Fire bolt, ice bolt, lightning bolt. Same potency. What is the point? There would be no "complexity" at all. It would be more limiting if you could only use 1 elemental type on certain fights and not your full arsenal.
