Well, when you think about it each jump DRG can do it does something different, be it gap closer (SSD and DFD), aoe (DFD), stun(SSD), long range strike(All), or enmity dump(EJ). MNK "nominally" as of stormblood has the same number of options but all of them are gap closers with glued gimmicks that still have less use than all the jump options DRG has, ignoring the fact that all 4 of DRGs jumps are unique buttons vs MNKs tackles all branching from the same one.

tl;dr: MNK has nothing that gives them mobility without doing damage and the player is asking to scrap damage on shoulder tackle if that would mean more mobility for the melee dps that has very little of it.
