People need to understand that while every Final Fantasy game has similarites (Some jobs, monsters, bosses, etc), they all have their own concept, lore and gameplay.

We can have other pets, SE could do it, but what would it bring to the table ? If one of the pet we have now is better, we'll use it, if the one of the new ones is better, we'll use it. Even if we had 6 pets, we will only use the best one.

That's why I liked your opinion on having a 4th support pet, but having a skill that will switch our pet for another one during some seconds and we could switch back to the one we were using. That is a good suggestion, constructive, you can be against or for it, it doesn't change the fact that it would be really interesting for the gameplay and also for the SMN job in itself.
