Herein lies the crux of the matter. I am of the opinion that we have two decent mages already (bar some minor technicalities) One that is dmg/heal over time and one that dmg/heal in an area. Why the need to split then? That would just prove to nerf one class IMO. The classes (moar mages!) should be more tailored for specific functions but these ones are fine enough as they are. As much as I like FFXI and junk, I really think Final Fantasy XIV needs a departure from its 8 year old sibling, change things up, and become a modern contemporary MMO.
