Considering that this board is comprised of both old and NEW magicians, I find this perfectly fine. This teaches the new ones a utility they can use, and the old ones a way to do it in front of the specs. Look at all the people on this board who were amazed by it. Magicians look for this kind of thing, especially since it is a utility move and not an effect in itself, specs wont notice a thing.
