Alot of work. Rogue, on the other hand, can easily just be balanced against the DDs given the class is, itself, a DD and the other DDs are already balanced against the rest of the classes. Given this, it's only sensible to 'nerf' rogue, bring it more in line with the classes we have.
That is fine until you remember Dragoon is getting a buff.
