This is alarming, but perhaps not in the way you're thinking.

If they "summoned" a person the result would be a translucent glowing copy of that person that they could then control. Sounds an awful lot like Sun's clones, and by extension Blake's (although hers are obviously quite a bit different).

Consider that the glyphs also apply forces to things; Weiss uses hers to attract and repel things, as well as to shape her ice dust attacks. compared to Glynda's telekinesis or Pyrha's polarity there's a resemblance there as well. There's differences, but there were in the case of clones as well.

The glyphs, in short, seem to be capable of duplicating whole swathes of abilities where normal semblances tend to be limited to far fewer.
