When I said addition is better, I literally meant in giving you a feature that allows for a layout that is better for your disability,.

What job are you playing that requires over 60 hotkeys and giant hands?

Then use the letters on your keyboard instead?

Edit: Like you can LITERALLY bind buttons to ANY key on your keyboard to make it as intuituve as you want. We Do NOT needs a combo buttonf for that xD

Ah yes, sacrifice all the space of convince to access the menus on letters of keyboard because we have to have 6 copies of same button for great importance of complexity and difficulty of pressing them all in exact same order every time without pause for 6 minutes.

Thank yoooooooooooooooou

I really wish XIV had opted for the more typical approach of having less buttons you use more often as opposed to making almost every ability learned in the post 60 stretch cooldowns you only use once every 30 seconds to two minutes.
