The benefits of multi-classing go beyond the combat mechanics of the game, as well. If you develop a character-driven reason for multi-classing, that's character growth in action. Great for role-playing as well as for driving the plot of the campaign forwards.

Great point. This was one of my favorite aspects of it actually.
I started as a rogue and would gradually "harvest" some sort of arcane trophy from various monsters we defeated or quests we went on. I gradually cobbled together a spellbook as I grew my rogue, including some hacked together spells that had some wild magic type surprises at first as I was learning. These were the most fun levels by far.

It's designed like that though, and artificially so.
It's not real.
It's like taking dating tips from films, it's made up. And if you copy what they do in films you'd end up being really creepy.
