Request: Give Manifold Host a new Capstone Boon

While planning out my Manifold Host character, I realized there were some odd interactions with "Manifold Host Exemplar"

For every other faction, the Capstone boon is available at Tier 4 (usually Level 8ish) and applies to a new character (regardless of the faction chosen)

Manifold Host Exemplar is different because it applies to the character who hit Tier 4, not a new one.
Since a character can only benefit from one capstone, you cannot start a character with another capstone and also apply Exemplar.
This also discourages the player from starting a "nufriend", which seems out of character for the Host.
And it only applies to characters who are using an admittance boon, limiting the race selections that can fully benefit from Host.

I would suggest making "Manifold Host Exemplar" no longer a capstone, though leave it a T4 purchasable boon.
Then introduce a new Boon for a capstone for Host. Maybe something similar to Wayfinders and unlock a new race, as that would fit with the Host's mission to make friends.

There's a certain rabbit like race currently not accessible that has limited contact with the wider galaxy, this would be a great way to introduce playable Ixtli

5/5

Is it just me, or do "capstone" boons no longer exist?

Like, the Tier 4 boons don't say "capstone" anymore in the guide or on the printed sheet. I see a couple in the retired boons section...

Can we only buy one "capstone" still?
