We don't know how many abilities we'll end up having so the "it's taking up a valuable action bar slot" argument is kind of silly. Could it have been mapped to some sort of button command? Possibly but there are other risks there as well. If it's on the double-tap direction function then you might accidentally activate it during battle or some other inopportune time. Moving it to its own button would work fine for keyboards but not for gamepads, they're already strapped for buttons as it is. Personally I already use L3 (in 1.0) for auto-run, and R3 for perspective change.

Comparing it to another game is all well and good but you still don't know 100%, completely definitively how it will work and be used by the players in this game. You can guess and assume but you cannot 100% know until you have played the game yourself. You can make assumptions about how it might affect things but you cannot say you know without a doubt exactly how it will.
How do you know I haven't played the game myself? Have you played the game? Points in the OP are based on the system as it is now.
