No offence meant, there are certainly lots of little things that annoy me about the jobs that I play, but honestly I don't feel that it is fair or balanced that BRD is able to take advantage of the benefits of all of their ultimate weapons when no other job can. And it certainly isn't fair to anyone who wants to start a new BRD and is immediately faced with "You MUST build every single ultimate weapon to be accepted for anything." from the community. I'm sure SE would fix this glitch if it didn't mean overhauling the entire song system to do it (and pissing off every player with a fully geared BRD).
Also, fixing this problem would end up making one of the ultimate weapons obsolete (annoying players who already completed it). I believe there was a suggestion a while back about adding a quest that would combine all of BRD's ultimate instruments into a single instrument with all of their effects, requiring players to have completed the original weapons anyway. That would work I suppose, assuming SE was willing to fully embrace this effect on the job, but that wouldn't do anything to help newer players.
