This is true, but the LNC was also level 40. They have either not done their MSQ (which implies they spammed FATEs), or have been choosing Allagain Coins over gear upgrades (which means they have more than enough gil to buy better gear and weapons). Doing the MSQ also opens up more side quests in the zone, which also offer upgrade rewards.
