stop take the skills in lower level content.

its not as much work as you think and the "perfectly fine solution" is kill any form of fun for older players

If it isn't that hard, show me how you would do it. The link in my original post has all the calculations for potency per GCD for PLD for every level it learns an AoE (excluding oGCDs). Balance every possibility so that you don't completely overpower the enemy. Bear in mind, you would then theoretically have to do this for ST and for every other job. Then we haven't even looked at defensives or healing, but that can be saved for later.
