Even if they choose to keep final fights out of the equation, there are many trials that would still benefit from Duty Support to ease the burden of progressing the MSQ.
Leviathan, Moggle Mog, Ramuh, Ravana, Bismark, Susano, Lakshmi, Tsukuyomi, Titania, Innocence... to name a few.

Anything that eases the bottlenecks to MSQ progression would be a boon.
While not impossible, the specifics surrounding those 3 trials are unique in that narratively the scions are right there for the encounter and they were written to be there with the creation of DT's MSQ.
Retroactively though for older trials, if they were to continue current course, they would have to redo narrative design in the older MSQ to make people available to participate in the trials. Now they could rewrite certain scenes to include some characters but I don't foresee that much variance.

If they abandon the narrative component though, technically they could also just throw in "random soldier A-G". Not impossible but they have to either abandon their precedent when it comes to duty support in trials or rewrite a good amount of MSQ to inject enough characters into certain scenes pre-trial fights. I imagine this is their current predicament.
