A higher level is not automatically the better pick. A Pal that covers a second job you need frees a base slot, and base slots are the real constraint — which is why the last column is there.

Kindling research

20 pieces of Lab research improve Kindling. Work amount is how much research effort each takes — the game’s own figure, not a time estimate, since how fast it completes depends entirely on the Pals you assign.
