Why can't we have a melee healer? Why can't we have Red mage have acess to vecure II or ver-regen? They are red mages and should have access to some of white mages more healing kit. Why can't Bard have it's support skills songs back? Bard is known to be a support job rather than DPS , that is Ranger.
Is it?

Or is this your XI experience dictating what xivs jobs should be like.

I didn't play Xi, so I never played a ff game with ranger as a job. All I know is archer, which, surprise, is a dps job.

Maybe we should let the game act like every other ff title, and be it's own thing with similarities, instead of saying "well, in the other mmo it was this way, so it has to be this way".
