If I was looking for a challenge and I was bored of the rank 50 dungeon, I would run it as a 25.

You may not feel the same way, but what is the point in penalizing Player A that would have just as much fun running through a dungeon designed for a level 25 on his rank 50?
You're not being penalized. It was designed for 25 for fun/gear. You may not like it but it is their design choice for these dungeons. But, just because you cannot run it on a 50 doesn't mean you are being punished for it. As for a rank 50 MRD doing it as a 25GLD, I think the implication in Renta's post was that you were also leveling GLD as an example and that your rank 25 job you are leveling could use it.

Like keeping old gear from a job you previously leveled or got by other means and using on your lower level job that you are messing around on.
