"Y'shtola has so much potential as a character, the writers could go crazy with her!!" and then she does nothing beyond a funny joke about her being old, plus maybe a fourth deathscare if we're nice
Remember when Y'shtola was a conjurer?
Where her demonstrating strong prowess in White and Black magic lent her to forming more of a traditional FF sage option in the party?
Because anyone who has leveled trusts wants to wring the neck of whoever on the dev team forgot that.
Alphinaud (or some other smartypants NPC) says some esoteric fanciful fantasy bullshit, and Y'shtola just turns to WoL and Estinien and says "To put it plainly, we need to fuck up this guy".
it's perhaps her biggest tragedy.
the scions are full of 'smartass' archetype characters, except each of them has gotten something on top to make them standout, except shtola.
So she is supposed to be the smart one, except everyone else does it better than her
