Conjuring is a low level summoning skill that anyone can do thats why its easy to conjure Primals lore wise. The only actual Gods revealed so far are Hydaelyn, Zordiak and the Warring Triad the rest are fakes.
You failed to take into account that when you summon a primal you don't control it and it doesn't bend to your will like egis; summoning something is easy controlling something once summoned isn't.

So really what you are saying is that you want to do big summons that will drain your HP because lore wise it is taxing on your body and aether to summon anything big without a huge amount of crystals and that wont listen to you and will turn on you and your party at the drop of a hat if not right away.

I don't recall the Summoner LB but can't they just throw knights of the round in there or something and call it a day? Would that make people happy? and lore wise LBs feed off the party no? so you could argue that 8 warriors of light have enough aether to summon something big for a few seconds for one attack.
