It's funny how you say the devs contradict their lore when your statement on seasonal events contradicts how they are ingame, especially since you can't even get their names right. Starlight Celebration (Christmas) and All Saints Wake (Halloween) are actually part of the lore, like how Starlight Celebration originated from Ishgard/Coerthas near the start of the Dragonsong War, while All Saints Wake is about the saints ascending to the celestial realm of the Twelve, leaving Eorzea temporarily vulnerable to increased amounts of creatures of darkness showing up.

When it comes to the gear obtained from those events, they all have to be tagged as All Classes/Lvl 1 (due to the fact that they'd want everyone to be able to wear it), and their glamour system is likely coded in such a way that it simply allows glamouring of anything that says "All Classes".

While I still think they could lessen the restrictions on glamours (like the crafted skirt I mentioned in a previous reply), job-defining gear should remain exclusive to the job it's part of.
