That wasn't really the problem for scholar---at least not for me, and I think not for most people. The reason I wanted energy drain back wasn't for the MP or the damage, but just to have a button to dump excess aetherflow stacks, because wasting resources felt bad on a job themed partly around resource management.

To the extent that energy drain has helped with my mana situation, it's not really because it restores MP, but because I'm no longer hesitating to recast aetherflow if I haven't used all the stacks.

I think I honestly would have preferred that. I don't know that the new card system is more or less complex than the old one; I kind of think it's apples and oranges. All I know is that I enjoyed the complexity of the old one and don't enjoy the complexity of the new one. So if the old system had to go, I'd have preferred a really simple card system combined with increased complexity elsewhere in the job.
