Too lazy to look right now but even if it's not in the VN;
Rin = five elements + gems (with years of mana stored inside) aligned with them.
Guess what happens when she casts a whoosh spell with one of these?

Their worth (life) ends when humans can no longer bear that purity.
is there any speculation on the importance of concepts mentioned in the 1 star and 2 star CEs in terms of lore?

Some of them sound vaguely tied to general ideas we've seen, like flash being similar to how instinct is sometimes described or the shooting star one makes me think of Saber trying to read the stars at the end of Fate route.
Pride rock just makes me think the artist had just watched a bunch of disney movies though.
Localizationing stuff
It only just occured to me now that the art in those CEs reminds me of tarot imagery.
Linger: Complete. August, 1995. I met him. A branch off Part 3. Mikiya keeps his promise to meet Azaka, and meets again with that mysterious girl he once found in the rain.
Shinkai: Set in the Edo period. DHO-centric. As mysterious figures gather in the city, a young woman unearths the dark secrets of the Asakami family.
The Dollkeeper: A Fate side-story. The memoirs of the last tuner of the Einzberns. A record of the end of a family.
Overcount 2030: Extra x Notes. A girl with no memories is found by a nameless soldier, and wakes up to a world of war.
Yeah. Harvest also resembles Empress, Oracle resembles Fool. The Shooting Star one doesn't actually remind me of Star as much as I'd expect.

Harvest resembles Empress more to me than Sun, because the grain as a symbol of fertility is one of the Empress's more prominent symbols excluding the female figure itself.
A lot of the rest seem mostly divorced from tarot imagery, so rather than it being based off tarot itself it's probably more that common elements are used for symbolism and there's an overlap.
A bunch of concept-based CEs themed on Major Arcana would be super cool, though.

Is there a reason for why Yoshitsune doesn't wear clothes (aside from the obvious IRL reason)?
It's fuckin' hot in Japan man
Do we know what happened to the Church in the extraverse?
