My "perfect" SMN Novus cost me around 3.8 million.
I failed twice, ever. Once on a grade II Savage Aim, and once on a grade IV savage might.
Not that bad.
50% still means decent odds.

It made it more fun, that apprehension as to whether or not my materia would stick.
I don't get why everyone wants safety nets put up around an already forgiving system.

Danger/risk/accomplishment... {Can I have it?}
