I still say the whole learning thing could be solved with job quests. Especially if the quest is something like tracking down the monster, and then fighting it. BLU doesn't necessarily have to get hit by the ability. It could be a different take on the job where they observe it in action and learn it. A lot of people want traditional. They want that FFXI BLU, where you have to beat the mob with a wooden katana until it submits. If RDM can take a different approach, why not BLU? Besides, the job starting at lv50~ kind of defeats the purpose of learning spells anyway.
