PUP doesn't need the WS, either for best damage or for skillchain purposes. PUP's own quested WS is better, as is Victory Smite.
There's no good reason to give it to PUP, and MNKs can keep it.

I'm a PUP and I don't want it, and I'm sure no MNK wants their big MNK-only WS to not be MNK only anymore.
Take away a MNK only thing? It's not like we're asking for Black Belt/Counter/Higher Guard/Boost/anything like that. We're asking for access to a WS for our main weapon. Just like how every other job has one they can quest for. Didn't COR take the "big RNG-only WS" detonator from RNG? You'd say no because their main combat skill is Marksmenship and they met the skill level by 75. Just like we can since the combat rating upgrade.

There is no good reason to give it to PUP? Is there a bad reason besides your "MNK-only WS" argument? Or that you yourself don't want it?
