I wouldn't use this; skill levels in SR aren't limited in such a way, and
it doesn't make sense anyway to say "No, you can't learn to be a master
conjurer because you're not charismatic enough."

A better solution, using the suggested house rules anyway, would be to
limit the number of Conjuring dice that can be thrown for the summoning
test to the character's Charisma.
