I suggest you do some research about that before you bring it up as ammunition for your side of the argument.
I'm not sure what nerf you are talking about in particular (please clarify), but I was under the impression that for casting Utsusemi, Red Mage is the second best job due to large amounts of Fast Cast. If evading hits didn't matter, Red Mage would probably always win out on /NIN due to a mix of Magic Defense Bonus and Fast Cast.
