Once again, it's way, way too late to drastically remove/phase them out at this point.
It'd be like removing the faeries from Scholars or the turret/automaton from Machinists (also integral parts of their identities/lore).

Besides, each game has a different take on a given job.
And in FF14's case in particular, this is what we got for SMN.

Adding more Trances/Demis? That's fair game.
Removing Egis out of existence? Not happening.
