As a trivial objection, what of weapons that don't require forging? -We know that with Aura, you can reach 80+ and be as good as a 30, with enough training. When you can reach 80 years and be as good as someone in their 30s, in other words potentially having double the lifespan, does taking 3-4 years of your life to learn something that could save your life and/or wallet along with the other things normally taught really sound that bad?

There's no real hurry.

-In such cases, I imagine they would be taught a different class as a replacement. For example, if you don't use a weapon, only Dust, you would be taught Dust Control and related instead of Weaponcrafting, so you would be able to do all the shit Glynda and Cinder can do. Or at least skip Weaponcrafting and jump straight to it.
