Looks good to me, thank you!

Yes, Hazō can make LBF. The seals document has a list of what he knows.
Will check training plans later.
The clans agree with you, but they don't get a vote. See the chapter for their specific reactions and for Asuma's responses.

The current cycles training plans were written as if the previous weren't implemented, so we can just wait until this cycle if that's easier for you

Bloodline holding clans will just simply become a lot more valuable, while also not being primary fighters anymore.
Inferior clanless will die en masses in the future, while high IQ Hyuuga medics will rule Leafs hospitals.
Hiashi won again.
Even Death can't stop him!
@eaglejarl What are you going to try now to stop him!? You will never win!

That's why we'll be aggressively trading with anything and everything that moves. Will realize that making war against us will cut off their income and food supply, making them dirt poor and reducing their ability to field ninja.I'm glad this Leaf economic plan will take years to pay off and we'll probably be dead before it shows results, because the first thing that'll happen once it's clear Leaf is benefiting from AMITY much more than anyone else (to the degree that ninja will start considering switching sides) is Leaf losing its AMITY seat and everyone else ganging up on us
AMITY can only hold as long as all the nations except Rock feel like they're benefiting from it. If this approach works, we will need to subsidise adopting it in our allied nations too, but it will be a tense time when our economic wealth outstrips the defensive potential.
Especially if anyone doesn't go to war against us. They'll keep getting money/food from trade with us, and thus they'll grow in power relative to anyone who attacks us. Which hostile nations absolutely do not want.

A nation buys stuff from us and then gives it secretly to our enemies?
Especially possible with summoning scrolls. Or storage scrolls.
How is that hard? We got really lucky and had a whole hidden group of ninja in our pockets, but on a smaller scale this can very easily work again.
This is just going to be a "Cold war" situation.
MfD History has even precedence for this:
Time to prepare for Phase two! More dead people edition!

How do you figure this (the value)? Because there are more ninja to do the quote-unquote grunt work, they'll be incentivized to only do tasks which are well-aligned with their necessarily-unique abilities?
I don't think that I agree. Ninja all specialize to one degree or another, and non-bloodline clans (e.g., the Aburame, the Inuzuka, the Akimichi) are unlikely to give up their unique techniques. I'd actually expect some regression in terms of sharing to maintain their advantage/attractiveness, given that 'has access to round-the-clock training from specialized instructors' will (eventually) be likely be true of the KEI, too, and with greater breadth. There will be more room for specialists to specialize, but a ranged-weapons specialist and a genjutsu specialist aren't interchangeable. Do you mean that the relative scarcity of bloodline holders will make them more valuable? You might have a stronger argument for this, but I'm not convinced that there are fewer bloodline holders (in the case of prosperous clans - the Hyuga, the Yamanaka) than other specialists (sealmasters, technique hackers, medics).

We'll see. No path to peace is perfect, just look at real life. AMITY is still better than anything else the EN have tried. For your objection specifically though, they'll then be making the peaceful village even richer and more powerful, which is again something they don't want.
I notice that Light Relay isn't on that list. Did we ever get word on the maximum range of the seal?

I never said that other specialists aren't valuable in their own right? But If the number of non-clan, non-blooline holders skyrockets than most bloodline holders will be better guarded.
We're already seeing it with Noburi. He is almost to valuable to even leave the city.
If the Hyuga were to actually become a major medic clan, they might still become field medics, but most of them would still be top level doctors like Kabuto, etc. I never meant this to be a black/white statement, some clans will fare better than others.
Buying food and clothes for n-hundred supersoldiers isn't exactly going to strain a major countries budget. Especially not if they are motivated to murder you.
I am just saying that we're not in infinite peacetime world. We're in the second trainings Arc.
