Personally, I've always felt Ninja would have been best played as a Supporter because of its slightly higher mobility and attack speed(?) in comparison to other job classes. Not to mention it's Mudra moves always felt like they'd be better reworked into hindering the enemy somehow than just being used as pure attacks or damage link boosters. Like Raiton could be reworkred into an aoe paralyze move while Suiton could remade into an ability that slows a single enemy down, attack moves and all for a set period of time.

Red Mage, I'd have to think more on but it could basically be a miniature version of Black Mage and White Mage or something.
That's basically what should be aimed for, ask for more nuance for Jobs while remaining in their role (arche-?)type. I don't mind the simplification that came with SB, but it was very shallow, and a lot of jobs really weren't touched as much. But unless we as a community learn to compromise and find a way to collectively ask for things since apparently its how things "should" be done, 99% of our ideas will be misunderstood and that remaining 1% will be lost in translation.
