If you have a Toyota frame and a Honda frame then Honda decides to buy Toyota’s frame and use it in all future models

Then come along 5 years later and go “they are the same frame they were never made more similar” ignoring the fact that they became more similar 5 years ago

SCH and WHM weren’t originally the same baseline design, now they are, just because they have a bit of fluff here and there doesn’t mean they weren’t shifted to be massively more similar to each other a few years ago. And they are just one example

What you call Homogenization on FFXIV is just the Core Gameplay, the skeleton of a role.

It's just a base on which the Dev are expanding on it to create a new job. Ofc, their will feel a bit similar to the previous one but, in the end they are fairly different.

But, there is some truth : they didn't really put much thought in Tank and healer "expansion" of this Core while they worked more on DPS. (Well for Healer it's more laziness because they don't care at all about this role)
Seriously /sigh
