This is why PAs may study Sorcery, to fight in Astral Space. He will
get an Astral Pool equal to his grade when he initiates, tho.

Non-riggers don't get a Driving Pool, non-deckers don't get a Hacking
Pool, so ][ don't see why a non-spellcaster should get a spellcaster's
Pool. Unless you want to allow spellcasters to acquire autosuccesses;
][ mean, they *are* magically active after all... (NOT!--^)
