Silence is just one of those things we require now a days because magic elements are quite strong, roughly 60% stronger then a lot of physical skills. (Bard breaks this rule somehow without being magic yet does like 200% elemental damage which is higher then stuff like Shinken from Soldier at 120% SWA). A lot of spells average at 200% total scaling, 210% with a white spirit. Well a lot of physical skill average at around 120% - 130% if you're lucky with a white spirit.
