But that's the same reason why there won't be gender-locking jobs. It limits player choice with an outdated concept.

That's what I meant by "We will never have gender locked jobs for the same reason we have female Roes & male Miqotes."
Not 100% true, they added the male and female for roe/miqo for 2.0, in 1.0 it was the same as XI
