Since using lustrate and soil is much more fun than using energy drain. Especially since the MP concerns were fixed regardless of ED, as ED no longer gives mp back anyways. Obviously some people want sch to stay the way it has been since stormblood forever, but I hope we can remove ED (or untie to aetherflow) and actually make aetherflow interesting instead.
Aetherflow is interesting precisely because it has an opportunity cost, not despite it. Go play sage if you want to not have the option.
