As is prevalent in many fantasy magic systems, leaving a skill untrained might be more dangerous than actually training it... Just imagine what would happen if someone had the skill to control weather, but never learned to control it... what could happen to the global ecosystem if such person got angry?

here's an example quote from the malloreon:
malloreon Wrote:"Belgarion," Velvet chided him gently, "now really, that's no way to behave. Kal Zakath has been a very courteous host. I'm sure that now that he understands the situation, he'll be more than happy to cooperate, won't you, your Imperial Majesty?" She smiled winsomely at the Emperor. "We wouldn't want the Rivan King to get really angry, now would we? There are so many breakable things about — windows, walls, houses, the city of Rak Hagga — that sort of thing."
