Agreed, it's pretty ridiculous. It also kind of clues you in on how much FF history they know. Just because XI did it doesn't mean every other FF game must. Dragoons are generally distinguished by the Jump ability and wielding spears of some sort, not by having a wyvern pet.

Lore changes but the distinguishing features of certain classes stay mostly similar. As stated above Dragoons are characterized by spears and the Jump ability. True they could have wyvern pets but it does not distinguish one as a Dragoon. FFTA Dragoons had AoE cone breath abilities but that doesn't make it a distinguishing characteristic of Dragoon.
