Can't talk any of our casters into trying it

Our group is playing one off modules the rest of the year due to schedules around the holidays. For this weeks module I thought it would be nice to have the casters use the word casting system so that we could give some feedback. Everyone felt that it wouldn't hurt to look into. None of us had read the play test at this point. I was surprised that everyone that was planing on showing up with a caster asked basically the same question "Do I have to use this? If so I'm not going to play a caster." I should also add that we currently do not play by the vancian system per say. The majority of the group doesn't like that system and so we have been using a point system (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/magic/spellPoints.htm). I don't know that this is the kind of feedback that Paizo is looking for. If some players would use it I would have offered that feedback but as they refuse that is the only feedback I can give. Perhaps at the game I can get details on what exactly they don't like at about the word casting system and then provide better information.
