I'd go so far as to say that's pretty much part of the "bog standard" design right now, due to needing not to overcap on cooldowns / charges / gauge, and most actions and Gauge gens being normalised to ~30s multiples. Off the top of my head:

PLD
WAR
DRK
GNB
DRG
RPR
MNK
SAM
NIN
MCH
DNC
SMN

You could also add in RDM if it doesn't have to spend Gauge for earlier mechanic mobility, or Healers if you want to count "refreshing dot" as "personal burst" (lol).

But all of that, right now, is "naked" at the odd intervals in EW, and then "anabolically-enhanced" at the even intervals.

If some of the buffs were shifted to be at odd intervals also, it would nudge the odd-minute troughs upwards, so players could pull a bit more out of realigning themselves with an odd burst.

Interesting note about forgiving Enrage timers, though. At some point, do concerns about "clean" DPS output + coordinating burst become essentially a vanity exercise if there's no real pressure to do it in order to clear an encounter?
