What I think is particularly odd about this argument is that the "job points are becoming critical to playing the job because they said they'd add new spells and job abilities!" argument is being made with absolutely no clue what those spells and job abilities are, or how good they are. It's like arguing about the quality of a movie that hasn't been released.

I don't know why "this thing exists" equates to "this thing is important". If job points are too hard for you don't do job points. It absolutely disgusts me that people think "this thing exists, I like it, so I deserve to have it!"
