It's very hard to inconvenience spellcasters for more than a round or two.

edit:

The spell sticks around for the remainder of its duration, which is short enough to not worry about.
Yeah, my misinterpretation comes from the the very limited number of spell slots characters will have at the time this spell will become available. Which to me also limits access to metamagic feats like silent spell. So it felt like an overpowered effect for a level 2 spell. At least I learned something new, better late than never.
Having the ranger etc. guard the casters seems way more important during the low levels now.
