That was my idea... I might claim copyright :)
Here's one I considered too. Mundane abilities require 1 extra HP per Mastery level of the end result. So 1-20 costs 1, 1W-20W costs 2, 1W2-20W2 costs 3, etc. (add one per mastery for mundane stuff that costs more than 1 HP at base level, if you use stuff like CC treated as a meta-skill with 3 HP per level).
That needs to be implemented from the start, and tends to slow, but not stop, mundane progression. Mundane and magical become equal in cost at 1W2, which is tribal champion level, if I remember correctly
