Because the game has a shortage of those classes in the world. You would have a valid argument if you couldn't request meld, but that feature allows raiders to meld gear without crafting, I'll even give you a tutorial.

1. Go stand in Idyllshire, mor dhona, limsa, or wherever.
2. "/sh any 60 BSM(GSM, LTW, WVR, ARM, CRP) that could help me with a meld?"
3. someone says "/sh I can!"
4. you request meld
5. you tip for their trouble

congrats, you melded your materia without a crafting class.
