Sure. I did that once, allowing only full arcane casters, bards, spellthieves, Warlocks, and the like... Not much different.

I've never done it, but I can imagine that while most archetypes can be accounted for using only arcanists, only bards can heal, and then not well. That could be an issue. Maybe not. As I've said, I've never done it before.

Synostodweomer, Healing Touch and the HEAL skill became much better in that campaign, yes.

I have done stuff similar to this, using daggerspell mages, and Arcane Tricksters for my stealthy types, and Gish for my warriors.

Well, I've never played in a full-arcane campain, but I was once in a 1-shot party where all 3 players were arcane. It's really funny when both the wizard (me) and the sorcerer only prepare (or learn) nuking spells for a day. Even more so when the bard feels left out of our explosions and trys to specialize in nuking. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
