To gear all jobs you need a total of 62 pieces of gear plus a maximum of 17 weapons, which ends up being 79 pieces total. Now, I know that the distribution of the different pieces varies, but it seems pretty likely to me that 6 months would be enough to get those pieces.
If we go with the assumption that you'll get one piece of loot from each tier each week and we'll assume on top of that that you'll get the "ideal" distribution (which seems fair if we apply your request to run this unlimited, meaning you can fish for the right gear), this is what you'd have to run - this is ignoring extra loot you'd get through tokens aswell as tomestone-gear that might be better. We'll aim for 100% Savage-gear or rather: as close to 100% as we can get, seeing how only one of two rings can be from Savage.
E1: 27 runs needed - 20 for all assecories, 7 for the belts
E2: 14 runs needed - 7 for gloves, 7 for boots*
E3: 14 runs needed - 7 for head, 7 for legs*
E4: 24 runs needed - 7 for the chest-pieces, 17 for the weapons
*gloves, boots and head gear drops in both E2 and E3 - it seemed more sensible to split it in a way that required an equal amount of runs from E2 and E3. One could ofc do 21 runs of E2 and only 7 of E3 (for the legs). Or any other combination.
So your biggest culprit here would be E1 with those 27 weeks - followed by a very tight E4 requirement if you truely wanted to gear up all jobs with just Savage gear.
And actually it would not give people without a static better chances to clear content - have you ever taken a look at what happens to Ex-primals 1-2 months after their release? You start to see less and less parties for them - especially no learning parties anymore aswell as fewer farm-parties. And why is that? Because people were able to farm them unlimited, those who were intrested in doing that, finished and have now no reason to go back again, thus making it more difficult to find skilled parties to learn, clear or even farm the content.
Thats how this would have a bad impact on us as a playerbase aswell as on the buisness-side of SE who wants you to stay subbed, which is why that "flexibility" would be a bad thing for them.
You also didnt answer my question: If you could farm Savage to your hearts content and gear up all the jobs (...even the 11 ones you still need to level up to 80...) what would you do then? What would you make you stay subbed until the next raidtier?
