I would prefer this. Your friend could "voucher" for you and bring other people in, perhaps people from other GCs only suffer a reduced reward (less seals) or just gil (no seals).

Not to mention, everyone and their mom had to do quests for all three companies. Maybe doing missions for other GCs earns you that company's seals and only the initiate level purchases become available to you; certainly nothing that would require a rank.

And maybe create a reason for people to help out other Grand Companies.
