I'm pretty sure this is how the rules are supposed to work. The problem is that this means that a newly discovered spirit is 'dealt with' at the same level as a primary tradition one, for very little HP expenditure. This gives shaman exposed to exotic spirits a large edge over their more traditional fellows.
Whether this is a good or a bad thing depends on your feelings on whether shaman are weak compared to theists, etc.
