Could you add the "Spiritual" alternate racial trait as an option for the elven race? #347

So I know that I already made a request yesterday, but as someone who loves playing with the elven race as well as the Ranger/Druid/Shaman classes as an elf (which are some of the most thematic combinations) I always disliked how the elves don't have an option similar to the "Kindred Raised" option that the Half Elves have. Namely where they forgo some racial traits as well as their intelligence bonus, in order to gain bonusses to their Wisdom and Charisma.

A number of real life tabletop Pathfinder games that I have joined in the past actually had that as a house rule, that elves would be able to select the following alternate racial trait:

Spiritual: These elves are blessed by the spirits, and gain +2 to Charisma and Wisdom but -2 to Intelligence on top of their ability score modifiers. This alternate racial trait replaces elven magic and elven immunities.

That way the elves will also have an option to play a thematic elven Ranger/Druid/Shaman, while also having matching racial ability bonuses to go along with those two classes (Wisdom for all 3 classes, and Charisma for the Shaman).

Would you consider adding this alternate racial trait to your amazing mod for the elves?
