I've never gotten that vibe, but I'm not a banestorm expert. I'm looking at the list of mystic lenses. There is a slant towards internal and subtle, but its still gets blatant:

Damage resistance vs Fire
Insubstantial
Warp
Healing
Mind Probe

The others are more internal and subtle, but it appears no knowledgeable person on yrth doubts the existence of mystics. That said, some of the above are tagged as "rare".
