Even with the ability for a primal to be summoned more than once it's still something that is considered to be a pretty big deal given that the entirety of a city state's forces is usually on alert when it happens. I could claim that J'hared was one of very few heroes to take down Ifrit last week but it'd make for a bland, predictable story and wouldn't be fair on everyone else.
Simply put, anyone who insists on being the hero might as well just invest in writing fan-fiction instead. It may seem harsh, but nothing justifies putting one's character that far ahead of everyone else's - you can get a similar effect without ruffling everyone's feathers by claiming to have been part of a larger force assaulting a primal or by having your character eliminate a leader of a beast tribe seeking to summon a primal.
