First off, you’re relying entirely on spells you have no guarantee of ever getting. You’re a wizard. You don’t get to just choose spells willy nilly. You find those and you copy them into your book or you learn from some other means. No guarantee of those means.

If the possibility of such drastic house rules have to be accounted for it’s not really possible to discuss balance.

That’s
…almost entirely unrelated to what I said?
