I don't see changes to how the elemental wheel (or lack of) works in this game because it would require a complete overhaul of Black Mage and most likely the other Disciples of Magic jobs. They would also have to redesign fights both old and new to take on such a change. As Winter said, its a lot of work for a system a lot of people might not even like and I too am not shutting down the idea, but just looking at it from a realistic standpoint.

Maybe in the far future if they ever decide to do a big redesign of the game like they did with 2.0, but not in 4.0 or any time soon.
For sure, I wouldn't expect anything like this to happen soon. But something like this might have the opportunity to be considered in the future when we get to the point where we can't add more layers to what we already have. I really just wanted my suggestions to be something to start this conversation, rather than be the core of the discussion.
