And why would I want to level Carpenter? I can't raid with it, so it's pointless, right?

BLU is just a different job, and just like you can't do endgame content as Botanist or Weaver, you can't do it as BLU as well, because it works different. But being different doesn't mean it cannot belong into this game.

The important point is that BLU would lose all it's meanings if it was a raid job with the actual combat system. So if you want BLU to be implemented into raid content, you should ask for a new combat system instead of destroying BLU.
Because BLM and SMN have different playstyles just like if BLU was a normal job it would have a different playstyle just like how RDM has a different playstyle from BLM and SMN.

And Carpenter is a CRAFTING job. not a BATTLE job. A crafting job is perfectly fine being side content as it's not the main focus of the game. Battling IS the main focus of the game as it is with any MMO.
