It may be, that I am simply too blind to see it, but how do mystic adepts get more power points after creation?

The first printing of the 6E CRB mentioned that (s)he needs to pay 5 Karma apiece (p.159)
The second printing has that paragraph removed (p.158)

Regular adepts gain PP by increasing their magic rating. Does that apply for mystic adepts as well? Or do they only get PP by using the "Power Points" metamagic?

Mystic Adepts do not gain PPs when their Magic goes up.  They get them via two means:

Choosing the Power Point metamagic when initiating

RPG mechanics exist to give structure and consistency to the game world, true, but at the end of the day, you’re fighting dragons with algebra and random number generators.
