Given how the summons are currently handled, I don't really think SE would make it any more complicated than that. You can decide where they go, when they attack, who they attack, what abilities they use; sure, there could be a bit more control over when pets use their special attacks, but I feel it's decent enough as is.

That said, I hadn't considered making BST branch out from MRD. It's not a bad idea. My only question would be if BST would better function with Charm or Pet jugs (maybe equipped in the unused Shield slot for MRD) or some combination of both... like the ability is Charm if no jug is equipped and Call Animal if one is.
