I'm actually kind of glad that the developers didn't go overboard with the mobtype-restricted spells in EQ. If they had, there would have been pressure on them to design the content to suit it. If druids had been the "shaman against animals" (and same with undead for cleric/necro), there would have to be "the animal dungeon" and "the undead dungeon" and whatnot in a systematic way across the game, and it would have fostered the notion that those classes were meant to stick to that content.

There could have been mobs that were classified as both undead and animal as well as dungeons containing both though types overlapping or interspersed throughout. A potential workaround to the systematic issue would have been to make Ignite Bones truly alter the target, making it undead and vulnerable to those spells, but perhaps also making it stronger in other ways as a result, sort of the opposite to the two versions of Sir Lucan, to prevent its overuse.
