Something like this should be explicit in the final version of the system,
In some cases it may be necessary to pro-rate the time spent in a template,
though I'd say, since the packages are unequal, so should the time required
be. It seems a bit severe for zero->Trained ( as in barely trained ) to
require the same number of years as does Expert->Master, in any template.
such as when determining when a character is eligible for initiation. This
crops up in a messier fashion when there are already two templates whose
times overlap ( often an Official will be a Noble at the same time, Soldier+
Initiate, etc. ). In these cases the ref should make a determination of what
percentage of the time was package A, and what was B, etc.
