I literally just need cross-job glams and I will die happy

Sort of agree, and I wouldn't even have minded it if they kept the current expansion's AF restricted until the next one came out.

But since you can be every job on the same character and you still have to unlock it there's not really an in-universe reason you suddenly wouldn't be able to wear it. It's just clothing / armor after all.

While XIV's gear isn't like this since 2.0, presumably the AF offers job-specific benefits to it, like cure potency increases on WHM gear, for instance. It did in XI, and I'm pretty sure it did in 1.23 as well, though I can't remember specifically so could be wrong. Lore reasons, basically.

I understand all that flies out the window with how gear is set up, but it still feels wrong to not keep only AF sets locked to the job. Don't care about raid gear and class gear being unlocked, but AF in particular is different due to the iconic nature of it.

Stop crying about AF gear. The WoL has earned/unlocked them, so we should be able to wear them whenever we want!

I've never played FF11 but according to some comments, glam is unrestricted, including AF stuff. So it makes no sense to restrict them in FF14.

11 didn't have glam until well after 14 did. Also, nobody is crying. People are allowed to share their opinions the same as you.
