3 - Would racial alternative traits that affect elemental/ish bloodline powers/spells also apply to Wild Talents and Blasts?  For example:

Some dwarves’ affinity for the earth grants them greater powers. Dwarves with this racial trait are treated as one level higher when casting spells with the earth descriptor or using granted powers of the Earth domain, the bloodline powers of the earth elemental bloodline, and revelations of the oracle’s stone mystery. This ability does not give them early access to level-based powers; it only affects the powers they could use without this ability. This racial trait replaces stonecunning.
I really want to run a Terra/Geo/etc, but touch attacks just seem like the better method at the moment. If I could give the abilities a shot in the arm with Stonesinger, it might be more worthwhile. I can definitely understand the long-term balance implications, but I wouldn't mind a clarification to help me decide what to do for the playtest =)
Also - is the SR against fire really that prevalent? If I went fire instead, would I run into a lot of SR issues before level 7 in PFS play where I wouldn't be of any use? I mean, I can diversify at 7 to a different element, but until then would I really be screwed as often as the cursory posts in this thread seem to suggest for Pyrokineticists?
