I'm very strongly against reagents s well, it's a complex chore I could do without. I don't want to be lured into an argument because neither of us are going to change each others minds but that's where my voice is.
In general I don't like any system for restricting spells, outside of simple mana systems and short cooldowns. I'll only use restricted spells when I need them, and I almost never need them because I have broken time powers (quicksave/quickload).
