Its really only for now because of the DPS difference. People are not over gearing Final Coil yet, so every bit of dps really counts towards getting those kills, or wiping. DPS and mana management, as a DRG that takes more dmg than a MNK uses more mana to heal, because everyone knows every DRG uses Life Surge to heal themselves right? (lol) Other than life surge, MNK and DRG have the same healing abilities, while MNK takes less dmg and heals for more.

Your ideal party setup does look really nice once the minor dps difference can be over come, and personally my group managed to just barely squeek by T10 so far with neither MNK nor NIN, but just barely. And before anyone attacks me, I main DRG and love the class and will not surrender to the NIN overlords so easily.
