You can spend points outside of what your class recommends in D20.

IN any case, the D20 rules will certainly modified to fit the setting. They
are doing this with Star Wars, there's not reason why they would not do this
with CoC. I just don't think that it has to go very far to get there.

Is this supposed to be another example of why professions are different from
classes, or a statement unto itself?
