Sphere Grid was absolutely broken and I loved it. I stole a ton of Key Spheres from Biran and Yenke, and unlocked Demi for everyone in the party, cause I also had stockpiled Warp Spheres. The entire party became magic users at that point
Sphere Grid was FFX though (and I loved it too). The junction system in FF8 had you “drawing” magic from monsters and certain points in the game world, which you could then couple with your characters’ attributes to make them stronger. It was an interesting idea but also felt wonky, because it made not using magic the optimal way to play.

Perhaps a cap on the amount of magic you can junction to a stat with the cap going up based on character level would improve things?
