Followed by the clause that an ordinary vampire is not an ordinary werewolf for magical purposes

As far as giving away greater effects for free...only when you dont consider that the specific framework I am looking at would already have a 150-200 point buy in for the racial template to get the free greater effect in the first place. Or that even with magic as powers tie in they are by possessing Magical Power X already at a point where "an ordinary member of magical tradition x can do this".

With a bit of further consideration I would probably stand by my idea for the racial transfomation style effects, but might put the dividing line for magical tradtion powers/disciplines as being equal to half the power of your current Discipline level as the cap to give a bit more reward to the players who have spent points on the abilities.
