I don't really understand why "better than a RDM" is "overpowered".
If you look at these jobs in past FFs, a PLD is by far more difficult to kill.

WAR can't solo cause it can't survive alone during the time he kills the mob. PLD won't solo cause he can't kill the mob during the time he survives.

I don't pretend PLD would de godly and far better than any other setup. "Useful" should already be a grateful boost.

Rage timers do exist so PLD can't solo and won't solo even if it takes loooong time for the mob to kill it.

Problem is, a lot of people don't do Voidwatch, and as it seems, a lesser PLD won't stand a chance. By leaving PLD in a trash in all Abyssea, a lot of people don't bother gatering stuff and jut reroll an OMFGIMTHEGOD-DD.

Shame...

ATK does matter, STR, too, DEF, useless, and VIT, crap. I know there is a problem with the system. If it's too difficult to change DEF and VIT so a PLD can really shine in taking hits, give it something else to do that.
