To me, that raises questions about what exactly it is the family values in their magicians, which I assume to be related to whatever it is that the magic education system believes is valuable (casting speed, the scale of the spell and the ability of the person to 'rewrite information' with their magic (ep. 3)). Doesn't look like super intelligence or high psion count - which Ushiyama's words suggest is a trait of both Miyuki and Tatsuya - count for much.
This is the first time I've felt that the anime is doing its job decently, the fact that an anime-only viewer (at least I'm assuming you are) was able to pick up on this perfectly. Was it hard? Or can anyone who tries get it?
