I can actually help explain this duplicating spells in more detail.  Anytime you have someone sharing the same spell menu ID--which is the Adult Caller sharing the Child Caller's spell menu ID for example--and when one learns a spell the other learns it thus duplicating it since it shares the same menu ID.  Try this, replace Cecils's White magic menu with Young Rydia's White magic menu and have Cecil learn a White spell at his next level up as well as Young Rydia and watch as both learn the spell twice.  This is the best I can remember about this issue--I think I might be missing something but maybe this will at least get it in the right direction.

Here's a video explaining what I'm on about.

It's a shame the game has no check for this as that would allow the same menu to be used by a character you get later without bugs.

I don't suppose there is a way to extend the number of available magic menus? you'd think there are plenty but i had some "skills" in mind for characters like cid etc but i am already having to make Tellah, Golbez, and FuSoYa share the exact same white and black menus as well as sacrifice Edge's menu to a more useful magic user.

I haven't been able to increase the number of spell menu IDs.  But nothing ASM won't cure.

unfortunately I am merely a spriter and have only gone so far due to the nice work others have done. ASM isnt my forte
and on such an old-school game i doubt it worth the trouble. i really only made sprites on a site called FFH as well, everything else was secondary :P

I suppose for the 14.5 characters (fusoya half sprite) that do exist naturally and with 2.5 of them not using magic at all there are enough magic menus to work with...
