Positionals and not-having-positionals are only defining to you because it's where you draw the line.

I understand you don't like it but there's much more to MNK than positionals, and they're emphasizing that with the Chakra stacks and consuming those and GL3.
MNK's identity lies with its buff stacking and maintaining, and soon to be consuming.

There's more to NIN than having no positionals.
They didn't even say how many there would be either.
But I think you clearly understand that the Mudra makes NIN unique, as well as Trick Attack and Goad.

You can complain that they're adding it to NIN while it wasn't there before.
I'll disagree but I respect that opinion. Don't act like they have their identities melded solely because positionals though.
That's like saying every other class is the same because they don't have positionals. You're just accustomed to that standard.
It's easy to say then, that there's a lack of diversity because only one class actually deals with positionals a lot.

I'm sorry it came to a class people rushed to get away from that aspect, but again we don't know how many positionals they'll even add.
