If they wanted to do that, they may as well just make a FF11-2 with a new skin. Sure, they have some similarities of course but they can't outright use the same exact system from another game and say it's there's. It would also require an entire rework of the job system as it is now, and expansions are typically used to introduce new content, not a new game entirely.

As much as you may way this game to be like others in the same genre, I don't see them implenting any kind of change to how the job system currently works.
And as for that... There was already a MMO that borrowed many ideas from FFXI. It was called FFXIV 1.0.
I really doubt they wanna go down that route anymore... lol
