Each approach to magic tells you more about the magician than about magic.

That's the heart of the concept of "Path" and why people like Macros and Pug can rise above it, and someone like Nakor can dabble without really being "a magician."

Cho-ja's are aliens. Therefore their approach to magic is alien. The specific mechanics were never developed the way they were with lesser/greater path (which is useful in the game design). If we ever use Cho-ja magicians in a game setting, we'll have to sit down and decided exactly what the differences are.
