D&D 2e's alternate schools systems was one of the neatest things done. It was also dabbled in D&D 3rd edition. I'm surprised Paizo never did for Pathfinder. Tossing out the "Traditional 8" didn't need to be done to explore alternate schools/categorizations of magic.

It's nice to see you exploring it finally though.

I think it is worth noting that a big part of the motivation for the remaster stuff is to move the game off of the OGL and onto the ORC, and to do that they're transitioning off of the traditional spell school system.

Average DPR with the bombs is 112.08 (I am factoring in point-blank shot since Al would rarely be further thqan 20' away due to the bomb's range increment. +1 to hit is worth 1.20 dpr and +1 to damage is worth 4.78(this seems high, probably due to the high volume of attacks). He can only full attack liker this three times a day, assuming he always makes all 5 attacks, but it'll end any encounters. I didn't include hammer the gap in the damage because I don't know how to do that, lol. That's also why he has the longbow and the splash weapons. I haven't calculated for the bow and the consumable because those aren't his main ways of doing things, but they wouldn't be super awesome anyway.
