[Petition] We want Red Mage!

Oh I know. If you read my ideas in my signature I incorporate that use liberally. I think defensive abilities should stay for DRK since they're using their HP already to do damage; they will need that defensive boost from time to time. Now, if RDM were to come off of GLA it would require extensive changes to the base class skills, at which point why not just make a new class in itself? If you have to change more than half of the abilities to make it work well then it should be rethought about. But that's my opinion.

Theirs works differently though. It cannot be maintained indefinitely and it doesn't give a flat boost but rather a % of the users SkS/SpS. While your spell works similarly to theirs, I see no restriction. If Time Mage gets a single target version it will need to have restrictions imposed to prevent its broken usage that we saw in FFXI. RDM was really only a debuffer/buffer in XI and FFTA/2. Every other instance it was a melee with primarily attacking and healing magic getting only a portion of those available to BLM/WHM.

Edit: I should clarify that Yoshi doesn't like the dependance on Haste and the strong focus/requirement it has in XI.

RDM is the one and only FFI class that isn't present in the game (aside from Ninja, and it's a lot more iconic to the series than Ninja is)

Thief. Thief advanced into Ninja.
