I've been trying to explain this to this guy for like the last week and he just refuses to acknowledge it. He seems more hell bent in doing aeolian edge just for the sake of doing aeolian edge honestly. Let's not forget that the Huton extension would be voluntary so if he is absolutely against it he wouldn't be required to do it (although not doing it would effectively need his own dps)

He also completely ignores that having a Huton weapon skill extension is a means to deal with Mudra lag to a degree even if it is indirect in its own right.

On top of that he keeps labeling a positional requirement as a nerf when every single positional in the game adds a bonus to dps.
