The problem with BM is it removes all your mana, so you have no mana wich could be spent on spells or auras.

here, i've underlined it for you because it sounds like POE players are bad readers

You posted your idea and people do not like it. No need to get defensive.

not defencive, 3 people post the same argument one after the other... argument that is wrong because they couldnt read properly

One of the downside to using blood magic is the inability to use % Reserve auras. If you allow for gems to then use mana, there would would be no downside. Especially considering your idea of allowing you to skill use +mana, you would still be able to use 2 40% aura's with anything over +2 Mana.
And you can't argue it would take up a socket, because aura's dont benefit from many aura's to begin with.

It's a cool idea, but Blood Magic is already a strong choice, with this change it would probably become mandatory for anyone stacking life
