I think you're getting confused about what's being said. The stuff quoted by Volsung is saying that Dragoons and Dragonslayers in FFXI were two different groups of people. Dragoons died out because the Dragonslayers kept killing their potential partners. In FFXIV, Dragoons ARE Dragonslayers. They are specially trained by Ishgard to hunt and kill dragons. NPC dialog and lore supports this. Check out Azury Ariella's Lore Compilation / Guide for more info.

But you know what? Screw the lore. Only a minority cares about having wyverns. The majority of us don't want it. Most have already said they'd rather have a dragoon with dragon-like abilities. No one on the wyvern side has offered anything that could possibly make wyverns look appealing to the rest of us. And nothing us anti-wyvern peeps are saying matters to you guys. So I don't think anything is going to change here. Throwing a wyvern in there just to appease a few people who can't let it go is a step backwards to most of us.
