That logic never made sense to me. Final Fantasy has always had distinctly non "fantasy" elements to it, and FFXIV is no different. Not withstanding the Allagan stuff who had starships, computers and genetic engineering, you also have the Garleans, who possesses technology that, at its greatest, is somewhere in the early 1900's. (No spoilers, but this is most evident in Stormblood, especially with a certain scorpion boss...)

I couldn't tell you why MCH is the least played class, but I'm not sure that reason is a big one.
