Take this with a huge grain of salt as I almost never play Sorcerers and don’t think I have ever played a Wizard. Wizards are outdated and should be consigned to the derivative bins whence Gandaldore and Saurmort derived. The distinction between Sorcerers and Wizards should rather be combined into a spellcasting class that casts a bunch of different ways utilising a bunch of different sources. With the ability to heal.

The exemplar is a "hero". They are not so much made powerful by their items but their items serve as a manifesting form for their superhuman potential. If they didn't need these, they would be gods.
Well it is one way to look at things. But only one way. And it’s a neat thesis. But again, only one. Sadly, there are about a million kajillion bazillion ways of quantifying just how godlike…gods are and twice as many that describe the provenance of their powers - the one presented in the playtest document is one of them. And they are all about as logical as the next. My favorite is the one about backwards tea leaves, dried bananas and wrought iron fish legs. But not in that order.

The real problem is what to call them? Batmanimist? Animattle? I keep thinking of a character called Anna “Ani” Baptiste.

I clearly didn’t read the OP clearly enough.
3 syllables.
3 vowels.
Commander works. As does Strategist.
Fateweaver does not work, as it has two vowels, one that occurs three times (e), and one that occurs twice (a).
Godcaller works. And Michael Sayre likes Godcallers of Sarkoris.
Symbiote works, even if “y” is “sometimes a vowel”.
Banana doesn’t work, because it tastes yummy.
I like the idea of Apostate as having something to do with a dead god. Or Incarnate…

Instead of calling it necromancy, how about soul or spirit magic. That way it could also open up more less-than-savory options. It shouldn’t be a matter of savory or not unless you are a ghoul necromancer, or possibly a vampire necromancer. I’m not sure many beings actually taste…sweet. Some types of fruit-conversant leshy types perhaps…

Alternatively, for those who like Epic/Mythic/High Level play, Seneschal will be a Path, each character gets a Destiny, there’ll be a sidebar about how, handled incorrectly, Mythic play might be problematic if not broken, and a little grey haired old goblin lady works as a weaver….um…Weavers are also a Path.
OR
For those who like magic, Spellweavers will be a Thing, who can heal a broken destiny. So there’s that. Oh, and also, seneschals.

I’m still trying to work out something pretty simple. If I get a partial boost, is it actually like I’m getting something? Or…not? Like I’m pretty sure it isn’t a boost to my attribute, and the partial thing seems like it is going to be checked in a box. But apart from that, what did I actually get? And why? Is it…chocolate flavored? That would be cool. If I have more than one partial, can I make it into a boost later? I can? In ten minutes, or…now?
I’m not sure about “bad design”, but it definitely feels like uninspired implementation, especially given the opportunity and remit of the Remaster. Sacred cows and all that.
It’s a silly “gift”. That literally does nothing. Until later. When it is a marshmellow.
I’m not sure an entire species is ok with being called an “okay substitute”. ;)

Probably because they are so bad individually, no one would want to combine them. That would be synergising the awfulness.

Someone needs to take action!
Totally uninterested in the flavor text for rules mechanics. Would save a hell of a lot of space wiping them from the face of the earth. Which I always here is at a premium. Space, that is. And space is also a good place from which to launch nukes that will eradicate the flavor text. Only. Way. To. Be. Sure.
Have the mechanics be clear. I don’t need someone else to imagine what happens, and it seems that there are more cases where the flavor text is contrary to the mechanic rather than being used where there might be confusion. To me this is the same argument as folx who say they use AI to generate their character’s names. Why?
Also, I need the Gorbler base class yesterday. With Trained skill in Deer taming at first level.

Lanzborne: “Nope, bears it is.”
Schtudius: “Infinite XP…”

If it was always planned I think that needs to be stated.
Will subsequent APs and books have a Pathfinder Remastered logo? The Remaster Project was not considered until after January. It’s been a tremendous behind the scenes reshuffle. Assuming the work is not finished, is there a possibility for adding a accessibility feature?, I'm referring to the use of Metric system along the Imperial one, something like every time a distance or a weight is called in the rules it could be displayed in both units like 10f(22m). If it's not to much to ask. Which might be great but I also vote they get the conversions right.
