Why is Voice of Apsu conj 3?

In short there is no real reason from a game point of view. Or, the reason is the same as why spells aren't identical in dmg and dmg type.

Making things assymetrical is nice, but I think you should've made some gameplay excuses for this. Just like Dark Knowledge is easier to research and more expensive to cast, you could give Voice of Apsu some additional, token benefit to 'justify' its higher research cost. I hear it can be used to search enemy provinces, which is ... very ... strange. It can be used as a form of diplomacy in multiplayer. Give me some magic trinket and I'll Apsu your 2 provinces. But it's very niche.
