I'm not saying the more straightforward jobs should go away. I would just like to see some options at the other end of the spectrum.
The sad fact is this, due to the failure of 1.0(Where they were very creative and VERY ambitious in their MMO design)the developers for FFXIV are scared, no, TERRIFIED to try anything ambitious or creative for fear of having a 1.0 repeat.

As it stands, the devs are sitting in a "safe zone" as it were. No one can scream of complain because "everyone's equal". Hence the "Lack of depth" as you say in jobs and classes. As long as they allow this fear to hold them back, nothing will change and the MMO will continue to go in this direction.
