I stopped reading when you said warriors aren't fun and only 5% of the community plays tanks. According to census data players have scrapped from the lodestone it's closer to 20%-25% with some variability server to server. Also, personally, I find warrior very fun. Every single person in my FC that went warrior loved warrior, and several have both pld and war leveled so they know the difference. So based on my personal experiences in terms of warriors, and in terms of factual numbers on your 5%, you're flat wrong and based this entire essay on false assumptions.
