Sorry to interrupt the offtopic but
Emphasis mine, shouldn't that be "Industrial", not "pre-Industrial"? The screenshot with reformation beliefs states "Use
Faith to purchase Industrial Era (or later) land units." with no mention of including anything from earlier eras.
Also, I personally have a "reformation belief" that the reformation belief that allows barbarian conversions has been scrapped. Check out the rest of the Reformation Beliefs: many of them seem focused on mid or late game while barbarian conversions would be mostly an early game advantage - barring the possibility of keeping an encampment for "recruitment purposes" which in turn would feel very weird. On the other hand, there is a large amount of barbarian musketman activity near Malacca in the BNW Diplomacy trailer, so perhaps barbarians will stay a relevant threat even later on.
