Not quite.  Multiple training is always available at the native capital,
and at settlements with mission *if* the "enhanced missionaries" extension
option is enabled.

Correct.

Correct.

It is intentional on my part, inasmuch as I am responsible for the enhanced
missionaries option.  Once consumed, the skill is *gone* from the game,
and that is the default Col1 action.  The designers were clearly OK with
the loss of the training opportunity.  I only put in "enhanced
missionaries" because I thought they were underpowered.
