Take a look at A3S with it's +/- mechanic for example, which favors summoners due to having dots ticking+pet attacking resulting in SMN probably having equal ST damage if not higher on those parts.

So far, it seems that Alex Savage heavily favors Summoners over BLMs and I have no doubt A4S will be the same. Which isn't really a bad thing for people that can play both casters but for people who just main BLM, it can be really frustrating.

And to answer your second question, nope. Aside from T11, Summoners will probably do more on the rest of the turns.
