Many JP players are just forgot their English ability they learned in the High School because they don't need to use it in their rest of life...

There are a myriad of threads (mostly made by Cairdeas) that suggest ways for both systems to coexist, but making WHM replace CON is not one of them.

If WHM, RDM, and RAINBOW COLOURED MAGE replace CON, then it serves to suggest that CON is pointless. The armory system is pointless now.

Many people already agree the armory system is pointless because it lead to bland, tasteless classes because even with the ability to crossclass skills, it really didn't lead to anything amazing. It's why MMOs, even with customization still have very defined and unique classes excluding blatantly obvious faction opposition similarities, e.g both sides have "light/dark" races of the same base stat nature.

Nothing is being replaced, even in the small bit of info we have they stated numerous times nothing was replaced, but the jobs are more for party setups.
