You nerf things because it's easier to nerf 1 thing than to buff multiple, and POWER CREEP IS BAD.
You normally nerf things when there's a problem or something is too beneficial than intended, e.g resale price of tavnazian panties that got exploited.

Geomancer doesn't fit into either of those categories as the only argument is: "Nerf Geo, I hate it. It destroys the game, nerfing Geo will make BRD and COR relevant again." BST getting nerfed was for a particular reason, buffing 21 other jobs to match a BST pet capabilities would have been silly as heck.
