Off hand weapons

[Nalien]

In theory, that sounds like an ideal solution.
In practice, however (and considering how the gear/armory system works), it would bring SMN's average Item Level down. Just like FSH's spearfishing gig.

Counterpoint: The Aetheryte Earring. If they can have an earring which adjusts its item level based on your level, I think it should be possible for them to do something similar for this purpose. Matching the item level of your main hand weapon or your average would be ideal.

A bit of extra work to go into the idea, I'll admit. Worth it to have that extra polish on the game? The text commands just seem really cheap IMO, heck even a UI for egi glamours would be an improvement... I get they said egi glamours are just for one Job and thus will never be a big priority, but then I look at Bard and its Performance options... Same deal, something just for Bard, yet it has so much more polish to it... You can open the actions menu and select/set those Performance actions, the actions themselves have their own animations and UI... Meanwhile egi glamours requires a text command to function and has otherwise been completely forgotten...
