Actually, I was drawn to the Arcanist's RP value in the brains behind it all, the versatility both in playing and RP, and the nigh-limitless possibility of an entirely mathematically-based method of aether manipulation (read: MAGICKS *wiggle fingers*). Carbuncle... I don't care one way or the other. it's a facet of the class. Corelyn uses hers more like an omni-purpose tool/pet than a Pokemon. She's not about to go sic it on some creature, then sit back. She's more apt to do her thing and just let her Carbuncle go apeshit in its own way without giving it straight-up commands.
