Vertical progression if far worse on gear bloat than horizontal is. Since not every job levels at the same rate at the same time, the items that do not scale up either get used, get thrown away, or bloat inventory. Look at the job armoury system, many players are afraid of getting even a few more abilities or they may become overwhelmed.
