I miss old SMN, anyone else feel the same way?

I miss the DoT management playstyle. It was unique. Sure just about every job has a DoT of some kind but summoner made it it's identity. The only issue I'd see if for w/e reason they brought it back, how they could implement the different summons into the rotation. They would either be pure glamour or still have stances similar to now, but they affect the dots/nukes/filler in different ways. Haven't put much thought into it so forgive my lack of examples.

It would be so, so amazing if they transferred the DoT maintenance identity to scholar. It would feel at home in scholar's theming (whatever that even is nowadays), and I really miss the animations of both Bio III and Miasma III. It would also break up the monotony of the standard healer 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2 filler, especially if they gave Bio III and Miasma III different DoT durations (e.g., 30s for Bio and 24s for Miasma like in the olden days).
