People like using Fuma gear as an example, but nothing is stopping SE from creating similar looking gear, tossing DEX on it, calling it something else, and giving it to Ninja. We've seen this happen very recently with Guardian Gear from Syrus Tower for DRGs and MNKs (two sets of similar looking gear, but different stats).
Because :
1. There is only 1 set by type of class : Tank, Heavy Melee(DRG), Melee(MNK), Ranged (BRD), Mage and healer, putting another set of Dex would make it have 2 Dex gears while there could only be one.
2. Dex is for ranged attacks.
3. Yoshi already stated that NIN will be melee and therefor we can guess what gear it will wear.
