We really should be able to glamour other jobs' sets

[Deveryn]

NPCs wearing mixed gear is just more indication to me that there's a technical issue somewhere and not just an artistic one.

From what I've read in the past, NPCs aren't programmed in the same way as players to need to wear class-appropriate gear, so the devs have more freedom with them.

NPCs in mixed gear is them just cobbling assets together. It has nothing to do with jobs and such.

For players to wear other job attire means that has to be set to all classes. That will lead to some messy situations. If you ever look at lowbie gear, a lot of people end up wearing the wrong stats. Imagine that in the higher tiers. You're in Dead Ends and someone is wearing all the wrong stats.

The best you can hope for is an outfit to be recycled. See: some of the crafter / gatherer gear in this tier is caster gear from previous / current tier. It just has a different color / dye scheme.
