Ah my bad, I thought that was what you were initially getting it with "a) de Casse has shown us Templars take them as 'trophies' and they use them"  ^^;

I guess in a way that does restrict Ubi's stories a bit; if they ever want to tell the story of a Templar protagonist that has no past as an Assassin, how would they implement the Hidden Blades then, I wonder? Though then again, Edward took to them quite easily, so maybe it's not as hard as I'm thinking :P
