A question for the BLU peeps

[Reynhart]

Tell them to use one of the options available to them instead of taking away an option from everyone.

But if a BLU doesn't care that he's a burden, you'll be the one held back if he's randomly placed in your group. So you're also protected with that rule.

Do you know for sure there won't be a level requirement to learning spells?

Nothing in the screenshots we saw tend to say that. It only shows a spellbook, and spells seems to be completely out of order. And even if they had levels, it won't change anything because BLU will still have far more spells than he can equip. Like I already said, imagine the mess if every job could only equip half of its job skills, and you can't know what they have before entering the duty.

And even in the past FF games that didn't require a level to learn, you basically were still level locked away from spells because you had to progress in the story to get to those enemies and be capable of defeating them.

This will be only one example, but since you can do a full run of FFIX at level 1, at least Quina is not restricted by his/her level. Khimari or Quistis also don't need any level to have access to any of their spells. And in every game you could still keep one of your paty member to level 1 and allow him/her to cast any spell at the very end.
