Hmmm. Expanding on that thought.
Whenever we see Nanoha or Fate use their cartridge-system, we see them using the standard, Mid-type, round rune-circles.
Theory: They are in fact using a hybrid of Mid-type magic boosted and fueled by the Velka cartridge, but not actually building their spells Velka-style.
Subaru, on the other hand, is definitely using Velka-type for the gauntlet - we see both cartridge use and the triangular rune-circle (I've got to find a better term than that), but the skates seem to be Mid-type (and I believe we see a round rune-circle when she activates them).
Theory: Subaru may be the first to fully make use of both Velka and Midchildan mage-technologies, as opposed to Nanoha and Fate's dabbling hybrid setup.
