Is there an unneeded hostility towards regular classes in this game?

I just spent like an hour doing bunch of 5 minute tests as SMN and as ACN, same exact gear sets (i87, allagan weapon), every single time I did 60+ DPS more on SMN than ACN, sorry, but the few extra cross class buffs don't even come close to overcoming loss of Fester, Contagion, 20 int, and Higher pet damage.

It's bad enough that so many people cant play their chosen Jobs proficiently, but at least they can learn and get better. You willfully and stubbornly refusing to play as SMN, and spending so much time and energy touting how you think ACN is better than SMN is so much worse, because even if you played them both to their maximum, ACN will lose everytime, so you are just limiting yourself regardless of skill.

Feel free to play however you wish, but I wouldn't be rushing to include you in any of my parties when you are willfully gimping your Damage, if it's some trivial content where group didn't need you to be doing good damage, or was some messing around group, fine, but for any content requiring all the DPS to be outputting their maximum, I would ask you to go SMN or GTFO!
