Personally it's also about how little the combat has changed/evolved for the majority of classes from SHB to EW.

Depending on class, going from ARR to HW to SB to SHB saw a decently big addition. Some classes like BRD was basicly 3 different jobs from ARR to SB, while job gauges added to each job, for better or worse.

But from SHB to EW it seems most jobs only got perhaps 1 GCD, 1 oGCD and some ability-upgrade (like DRG GCDs). It honestly still feels like I'm playing SHB some 3.5 years after it launched, really hope 7.0 isn't just a continuation of it so we end up with 6-7 years of the same combat.

*This is written in general terms, some jobs did get a more impactfull change from SHB to EW, but a lot of jobs got very little*
