I wouldn't expect it from you, but I would expect it from a lot of other people. So don't take it personally.

Even if your arguments are sound, I present the following.

1. Enemy Skills + Added Effect / Elemental = Nothing.
2. Magic Materia + Added Effect / Elemental = Something.
3. Something > Nothing => Magic Materia != useless.

I'm arguing they're not useless.
