While we may not NEED another DPS class/job right now, Musketeer has been something SE has wanted to do since the beginning and has had a presence in the game since the beginning. Plus, it fills in the gap of having only one physical ranged DD (as opposed to melee DD and magical DD, which we have two of).

As for the "desirable tank class", the problem is less with the classes and more with the role. SE can make the most effective, most fun tank class the industry has ever seen and a lot of people still wouldn't play it because of the fact that it's still a tank. Some people don't like taking on the responsibility of being a tank, for whatever reason. The tanks we have right now are fine and adding a new tank class without fixing the real problem (people not wanting to play tanks) will just offer a new job to the people who want to tank, and a new job for people who ignore if they don't like tanking.
