What Yoshida was saying was that the way the game is set up now, the three main disciplines (battle, gathering, crafting) are all intruding on each others' space so that while from an Adventurer's perspective you can do everything on any class, from a class' perspective, you are hindered due in part to the limitations imposed on you by the other disciplines.

Because of that, he wants a sort of "nonaggression treaty" amongst the three disciplines so that instead of getting in each others' way, each discipline helps to support the others.

That's why he also used the example from Ultima Online. In that game there were no specific jobs or anything. You just learned whatever skills you wanted to learn. Eventually, when you wanted to specialize, you ran into problems, which is why if you wanted to get the full UO experience from each character role, you needed to make multiple characters that fit different roles.
mmk "fukashinjyouyaku" now that word I've seen before on news...... didn't really pay attention to it.... orz
