Which makes no linguistic sense, but hey, can't even blame the localisers because the original is also absolutely primitive and barebones when it comes to battle system info.

Maybe it's an Atlus thing, I don't know. English is not my first language, so I can't comment much.

Primitive game design that keeps the details away from players, so they cannot plan around the information? I hope it's not an Altus thing, but I've heard differently.

It's unfortunate but it is the same for other Atlus games.

The order is weak < medium < heavy < extreme < severe

There's usually an actual numerical power value but unfortunately it's hidden

severe damage type cost more MP
severe is most likely higher damage

How can you not plan around it? More MP cost = stronger attack, so one can logically assume Severe is higher than extreme. You can also clearly realize this in order of when and how you unlock it.

Some games, or rather, plenty of games do this. Just like final fantasy does it like this:
fire - fira - firaga


What exactly do you need to know in order to ''plan around the information''? Beyond what you already know which is higher damage? You knowing the exact numerical value has no value here.
