    If that was the solution, we wouldn't have any meta, parser obsession and percentile based fflogs.
    You may be a kind-hearted player willing to help those who struggle without any high expectation, but the competitive playerbase of FFXIV isn't. And this playerbase is the only one where "DPS stance vs tank stance" matters. So, again, for the competitive aspect, I suggest having more options, and for the non-competitive aspect...no one cares what you do.

    First, Fast Blade is not the issue. The issue is having three combos but only two worth using, that share 2/3rd of their skills. Second, the initial step of a combo is a constraint you have to plan every time you want to use something that's not a combo. If you could spam enhanced WS over and over, you wouldn't have to ask "Do I use the next GCD to heal myself, do an AoE on multiple targets, pull back this target far away, stun this target or do I keep my combo up on a single target ?".
