    Although I agree with a lot of your points, I think this one by itself is a bit misleading. Damage is all BLM brings to the table. Even so, but a cursory view of dps rankings will show SMN and SAM both pull ahead - you can see similar with Hades, where those three are again neck to neck. BLM can parse higher than SMN, assuming you're very good at it, but it should not be unexpected for it to be amongst the highest parsing jobs. The anomaly in that trio is not BLM or SAM. They've also done a pretty good job reworking NIN and SMN, IMO, and DRG and SAM saw nothing but improvements this expansion. The poor treatment they gave AST, and RDM's flagging performance are the only real issues I have with the job balance, atm.

They've already shown that they're able to alter the character models themselves with 2B's outfit and before that...Minfilia's outfit.

    It's just odd in general to see how some things in this game have been designed. There's no visible nipples for male characters when they're shirtless, for instance - though Jecht in FFX, Snow in FFXIII and Gladio in FFXV do not suffer from that problem so it's definitely something isolated to FFXIV.
    Their design ambitions leave much to be desired, to be honest.
