What are you refering to? The Meteor? The golems? Shattoto? My apologies but I'm not totally sure to see your point...? Can you clarify a bit?

But... it is not offered in the school of thaumaturgy at the Ossuary... What makes you believe it is? It has always been a burried knowledge, how could the Ossuary, or the Coco brothers, know about it, and offer to teach it? It just resurfaced when Ququruka showed up to tell to the WoL that they are a worthy successor for black magic. It's literally barely months old.
As shown in the 50-60 quests though, it didn't prevent a group of wanabe fools to start casting black magic with whatever little knowledge they have of it, and without a soulstone on top of that.
But that's the problem with mosts jobs, that are often a lost arts, or restricted arts (or brand new arts like for MCH). The RDM questline tackles that issue a great deal on the various ways to learn about red magic when the job has been dead for quite a while, for example. It's a long and hard process and you have to know where to look.

A link would be nice, or author and title.
Not trying to flame here but when you want present something, be prepared to back it up with facts and credible sources...as I mentioned before.
Honestly, I thought mentionning it's part of the lorebook and which page and what main quote can be of interest was enough. I didn't expect you not to know about the Encyclopedia Eorzea, the lorebook so my apologies. As said above it's on the SE store and was released a bit before Stormblood hit.
But you don't really need the lorebook confirmation here to see how illegal it is. We already knew that way before because that's the whole main point of the 50-60 quests. If you require more quotes, please look at those Sounssy provided. I would have been happy to help but it takes a bit of time to parse through game script and find the relevant ones.
