There is no way RAW that allows a non-psyker to get double aptitudes in Willpower advances, which I imagine was the main drive for this question.
I'm sorry, but this simply isn't true. You can easily get the Psyker Aptitude by picking Adeptus Astra Telepathica as your Background. So a Shrine Worlder/Astra Telepathica (Defense/Psyker)/anything without any Elite Advances would always have cheap advancements in Willpower.
I'm more in favour of extending Leadership as an optional replacement of Psyker aptitude for Willpower given that Leadership currently blows and it makes sense for a leader to be iron-willed and resolute.
This on the other Hand I can agree on. Leadership really needs the boost and the Psyker Aptitude - while not impossible to get - is VERY elusive.
About the main question of the Thread... If I were your gm, you could simply exchange the Mystics Psyker Elite Advance for the Untouchable EA. Both are supposed to cost 300xp and I don't consider that too bad a break in fluff. One way or the other, you are a student of the currents of the Warp. Whether by calling upon them, to study them, or by being able to get closer than anyone else...
Besides, you're still somewhat punished in the way, that the Role Talent would be a bit of a waste on you... since Warp Sense requires a Psy Rating (which you don't own) and Untouchables already own Resistance (Psychic Powers) by default.
Then again, I get that not every table is as positive towards players ideas.
Mystic Role + Untouchable Elite Advance. Thoughts?
