As for bonuses, you also have the "difficulty" of obtaining them. Would it be reasonable to expect everyone having a completed relic, a final Deep Dungeon weapon or upgraded tome weapon in every random duties, considering their bonus might be better ? Would it be reasonable to demand a BLU having a skill learned from a lvl70 instance during a lvl50/60 roulette ?
I've asked you in the past if you were under the assumption that you would be unable to change spells once inside an instance and you said yes but we don't know if you can or not yet. Also, I've never said to just leave blu as it is and lift the restrictions. That's why I've been saying it will take probably to 6.0 for SE to make blu work in the full game. They already have most of Shadowbringers planned out (inlcuding the blu content) so IF they did listen to the backlash, adding what we are asking for would most likely have to be part of the following expansion.

I'm pretty sure that we talked about set bonuses in another thread and I said I don't think they would go for them in the full game and then linked you to an onion knight thread where I made a post about how I can see them added in a strictly solo setting.

People can expect what they want in matchmaking but will seldom get that and either they accept it or drop from the group. If they harass the player without X, then that player should report them for a possible ToS violation.

Your final sentence is again assuming there won't be a hard level requirement to learn spells and we don't know that yet. Even if there isn't a hard level requirement the job quests could give us traits to make it possible to learn more spells. So in your example, that blu might not even have the ability to learn that level 70 spell yet. We don't know enough yet about how spell learning works.
