[UA] No such thing as a perfect setting

Hello
I thought about it after reading the first message in the "my
game/experiment" thread.
No setting is perfect. No one ever starts a campaign without taking
something out of the book, or adding some of his own. What's that
thing, for you, in UA? What's the thing that you don't like in the
setting, or that was missing? Even if you don't run, what plans
would you have done if you would have run a UA game?
For me, it's the size of the invisible clergy. When thinking of the
archetypes, Jung immediately comes to mind, and his archetypes were
being passed along from generation to generation for tens of
thousands of years now, if not more. It seems immpossible that in
all that time, less than 333 archetypes were created, or that less
than 333 people occupied the relevant spots in the invisible clergy.
More than that - when thinking of the Yungian archetypes, they
include more than what the UAish archetypes seem to include.
Archetypes like the water, for instance.
So I decided that the Invisible Clergy won't be limited to 333
members, but rather - That ascension would happen when a certain
archetype would join in. I haven't decided which archetype that
would be yet, though "The Cosmos" sounds like a good one.
