Tank stance on syncing down

Why is it that in 2025 you still drop stance when you sync down? Like you get it in all content levels so why not make it persistent? I cant think of a single piece of content where you wouldn't benefit from it remembering your stance status.

The reason is very simple: the game makes sure to remove all buffs related to skills and abilities to ensure that nothing of too high level stays.
And the game also doesn't seem to be willing to parse through all of them to see which ones are on level and which one aren't.
Since tank stance is lvl1 however, they could frankly exclude it from the whole process...

Or even purge and then just auto-apply it...

Tank stance, on all tanks, is level 10.

Since it uses the same system as FATEs, and FATEs can sync to below level 10, it is needed to be included for that small sliver of content. They could change it by changing the level you get tank stance of course.

This would be the better solution. Like summoning your fairy/carby on Scholar respectively Summoner, it ought to be part of a very small list of things that auto-re-enable after sync if they were enabled before.

I don't know why I even thought it was attached to tank mastery.
