new items are counter productive?

wouldn't you just equip a class weapon first then change it after the stone is equipped

You could, yes. I'm just theorizing why SE may have held the job weapons back. Obviously equipping one weapon so that you can equip another is pretty cumbersome. My guess is that SE has something up their sleeves to rectify this, which may be the reason for the delay of job specific weapons.

they said they held them back so that they could implement them with hard content, if equipping a job weapon auto equips your stone that will be nice.

I didn't see where it stated why they were held back, just one that said they were held back with no reason given. Do you have a link to the post, so I can see for myself?

its an older post, its why they were held back from 1.21. Im not sure why they are held off now, but im guessing the content wasn't ready.
