That'd be fine, but if that's the case, running a short arc to get access to something... Ya know, I did that for my Alpha slot, but you can just use merits to do that now. Don't see why that's such a big deal.

I don't recomend holding your breath on a new ancillary power pool! So in the meantime, this is what we have to work with!

Hero wouldn't go villain? Then don't say they did. Oh? Want them for theme/concept? Well the theme of the Patron Pools is one getting training/given power from the high ups in Arachnos!

What this comes down to, is that being blueside currently gives all ATs a lower amount of powerchoices than red. If you've done tips before, that means you're sacrificing alignment merits for something a redsider gets for free without any extra effort.
Many players already use powersets for different intents than they are. Fire doesn't need to be fire. Dark Miasma doesnt need to be Dark Miasma. I dont see why that matters.

It's really not that hard.

No, but redside gets this benefit with no cost. The arcs are fun, and you do what, three mishes to get those? Blueside would need to do 25 by that count.
It seems like very little work on the dev's parts to equalize power pool opportunity.
Plus, you're already saying that someone with Natural origin can use Mu Lightning because they talked to Black Scorpion? The 'storyline' reasons are kinda sketchy here.
