The key part there is 'like all the other jobs'... shoved into a DPS / Tank / Healer box 'like all the other jobs'... gaining abilities by leveling up (and a handful of class quests) 'like all the other jobs'... leveling up via Duty Roulette / PotD 'like all the other jobs'... having a different rotation but ultimately just being a DPS with a few extras 'like all the other jobs'... having a fixed set of abilities 'like all the other jobs'... end-game progression that relies solely on gear 'like all the other jobs'... being included / excluded from 'meta' based on 1-2 'unique' abilities but otherwise only on how much DPS they are capable of 'like all the other jobs'...

I can understand that you may just want to do the regular old duty / raid grind as a job called 'Blue Mage', but do you really understand what it is you are asking for when you say you want Blue Mage to be 'like all the other jobs' in FFXIV?
