actually, if neji is willing to take a few moments to read this, i might have an idea to allow this idea to have slight potential. how about it takes 3 oro points to get one added specialty point only if you use that specialty itself, if you use a different specialty than that you spent the point on, you get nothing, except for the starting for the new specialty
example: 6 oro points went to hyouton ninjutsu to allow starting level 3 hyouton ninjutsu. this person does not decide to use hyouton, but goes with katon instead. those points that went to hyouton do nothing now, and wont do anything even if they switch to it later. and if they go back to it after they went with katon, they dont get the points spent on it then anyway
