As for Libra you aren't wrong in your "description" of what the sill can do, but it's a bit miscalculated, I guess is how I'd put it. Based on what you said, you'd be trying to bolster your own defenses, which falls under the healer/tank umbrella. But a skill that does that would be something to cast on the party, not the enemy. Additionally, while it does do both, what you made was a merged version of Feint and Addle. Unfortunately, with the new BLU Condensed Libra added, it shows SE is more inclined to have it focus on offense than defense. But I wont say just forget it, I'd just suggest finding another way of implementing the skill.
As for ED and Aetherflow, the current system is best, sorry to say. With your system the stacks might become too commonplace, and management would be almost nonexistent. SMN doesn't need to manage stacks, but SCH does. Plus, there is no skill to burn excess stacks. That's part of the reason SCH was given back ED in the first place. Your system sounds alright in theory. But since both grant stacks, you'll wind up having more than you'll need once the skill is off CD. And to use a stack on an unnecessary heal is just bad. It would be better if one did damage and restored MP, but at that point it's the same as the current system, just different CDs.
