For an point or idea to be accepted formally, it needs at least 1 of 2 things: A rational, logical argument, or empyrical evidence.

If the idea is absurd and not well argumented, and lacks good-enough evidence, people won't accept it.

In the case of "mage-like characters", the idea is accepted when there's emphasis on the -like. There's no magic, but they fight like a mage via Dust and Semblance. When there's emphasis on the mage, implying they actually use magic, then it's not as accepted unless talking about Maidens. When I put the idea of more RPG class style mages out there for support I was just thinking that right now Weiss is the only one. What about a healer? Someone who could boost other's Aura to heal healing. I don't care if people disagree with the idea, but there needs to be a certain maturity to the disagreement. It's like people feel like when someone's idea is "dumb" that means it's okay to insult because it's the internet and there's no backlash. Childish.
