Job action combos one button

Where did I claim it automates the entire rotation?

I never said you did. I said you claimed it automates away the attention needed for following one's GCD combo(s). Which you did, right here:

I'm saying you are automating away the attention you needed to spend on your basic combo.

Not a lot of GCDs even have positionals at this point and only on SAM do they actually matter for resources.

SAM doesn't generate resources from positionals anymore, but that's irrelevant anyways; potency is potency. Previously, those 5 Kenki were worth ~64 potency. Now, as direct potency, they're worth a straight 60.

Resource management has you pay attention to your resources mostly not really your combo steps.

Let's consider, then, the most 'stupidly simple' combo in the game -- DRK's.

It wants to bank for burst; any resource explited outside of burst is a potency loss.
Every 2nd step in combo, though, risks overcapping MP. Every 3rd step in combo risks overcapping Gauge.

That's a fair bit of resource interaction in that combo, no?
