I'm sure this is seemingly a debatable topic, but there is a couple things that might back up my opinion.
1.Puppetmaster is the only job that does not get two or more new LV.96 weapon skills.
2 Puppetmaster has C- Dagger Skill (There are plenty of jobs that have the new weapon skills with C- or even lower skill.)
3. Puppetmaster has gotten Aeolian Blade (which I've parsed for 1000~1500 dmg outside of abyssea with my Magic Attack Bonus set.)
4. Puppetmaster can use a lot of the higher level dagger including Mercurial kris and the new Haste Dagger. (This set up is actually pretty good dps wise)
5. Puppetmaster has a very high amount of dexterity compacity (For the weapon skill modifier), so this weapon skill could be another formidable option for Puppetmasters who want to deviate from the typical H2H set up.

Please consider adding this weapon skill to Puppetmaster... There is truely nothing you can lose by doing so.
Well written and you make your case. And like you say at the end, SE can lose nothing from letting PUP use the WS. Only thing is by that same token, PUP doesn't really need the new dagger WS either.

Off the top of my head, PUP is one of the few jobs who have a Mythic WS that is on the same lvl as an Empy WS. In fact PUP Mythic WS is being reported as trouncing the new merit HTH WS as well. Stringing Pummel is that good and is only getting sexier as PUP HTH skill rises.

And that's just taking the Master's dmg into account like the rest of Vana'diel likes to do. Throw in the excellent dmg from the Automatons and blam!

Its always good to get new stuff, but i just don't see the need for PUP to be added to the list of Exenterator users. It wouldn't hurt anything, but i'd rather that the devs work on say more Automaton WSs for us than give us a WS on a weapon that we so rarely use.

Just my two cents
