Odd thought. Revive the Teach verb from early spires, with some changes, for the big lore heavy things.
Make Mastery of something like Necromancy or white magic an appable position, with the magic's having a slowly unlocking spell tree that takes points only spendable in that tree. A master, who would have to be vetted beforehand, can award those points as their apprentices come along... But even if they become proficient in it's use it's such a powerful, complex ability that even they only understand it's use. Not how to teach another.
To gain the ability to teach, you have to go through the app.
Admittedly, forcing people down a bottleneck for certain powers might be a bad idea. But I love the concept of having people seek out someone for training.
