I beg to differ. Most of the really good astral spells do not require massive amounts of pearls, and the fact that astral nations still are astral nations means that they will field astral magic against you. Unless you specifically somehow counter their astral battlefield magic instead of their usually weaker/equal other paths. Lack of clams reduce the amount of wishing and possible empowers, which lets you concentrate your pearl/research resources elsewhere. The nation with reliable national astral magic would be stupid to not use it.
