Steps to replicate:
--- Join the Hermetic Society and become a Magus/Maga (level 4 rank)
--- Use character focus (from Way of Life) to get the option of a lifestyle trait (wait for the dialog to appear, but don't click on it yet)
--- While the dialog is still visible, right-click on your portrait and "Choose Hermetic Art"
--- Take the lifestyle trait from the Way of Life dialog
--- Unpause and wait for the Hermetic lifestyle events to fire.
--- Within a few weeks, you will gain another scholarship-type lifestyle trait of your choice.

I don't know how to level up in the Hermetic society via the console - is this even possible? If it is, you can replicate this immediately from any start date (level up, then trigger one of the WoL final events via the console).

Here's a character with Hunter and Mystic:

I've done the steps like you said and it happened for me to. I did it wrong a couple of times which is why the date is three years in, also had to look for at way around the being rank 1 for three years requirement. Among the mistakes I made was pressing the scholar one first while both were opened, makes me wonder if you can get the scholar trait after the hunter trait in other circumstances, but I don't have the time to check it atm.
Turned out the easiest way to rank up by console is firing the event MNM.10001 which is the one where you recieve the response that they have accepted your rank up request.

Hello,

The final events that gives you the lifestyle traits in the Hermetic decision doesn't actually check for any existing lifestyle trait. That would be a slight oversight, since it only checks for any potential traits as you use the decision. Which is easily avoided, if as you say, you get an event that gives you a lifestyle trait and then use the decision.

I'll be sure to fix that.

Cheers for reporting the issue.
