Well that wouldn't make much sense now would it? I mean, if PLD sucks at dealing damage, and you are in a group with a WHM, why not switch to GLA and CNJ instead of having a healer and a tank that can't get anything done by themselves?

Even if you looked for a DPS job, for the content in question pure healer or tank might be overkill. People tend to aim for efficiency, and in this case classes would get things done more efficiently.

Further, people like to be DPS. Rare are those who would rather solely heal, tank or buff all the time.
