Let's redefine "damage taxes"

[SaberMaxwell]

What's harder, walking or mountain climbing. Writing a sentence or writing a paragraph? Difficulty is not subjective

Writing a thesis statement is harder than writing all of the supporting paragraphs to that thesis statement.

Writing a sentence in Mandarin is harder than writing a paragraph in English.

Climbing Camelback Mountain is easier than walking "The Maze" in Utah.

As well, define difficulty in FFXIV. In no uncertain terms I want you to provide a metric in which we can objectively measure a job's difficulty, otherwise your claim to fact of objective difficulty is a bit moot.

TLDR: Our current sorting system sucks, we need a better one for long term game health.

I more or less agree with all of this, all the way down to recategorization being possibly one of the best (if least likely, knowing SE) solutions to the problems we're facing.

Climbing Camelback Mountain is easier than walking "The Maze" in Utah.

I missed that one, that's a good one...
It's easier for a horse to walk on flat surface but harder to walk on a desert.
Camels have a easier time walking in the desert.

The same way, walking in a desert if very difficult and requires adequate skill but climbing a tree doesn't.
If we want to absolutely use a mountain, mount Fuji is said to be easy to climb and a tourist attraction.

A final example, it's easier to live in the hot country for an egyptian than in a cold place such as Alaska.
The opposite would be true for the Inuit, they developped skills to survive in the cold but not the hot desert.
Or for an experienced mountain climber, walking in the desert would be a difficult challenge to them.

Therefore, once again, difficulty is subjective.
