The core of your issue is that you have some fantasy that even if they implement job changing stats, such as increased Jump or increased DoT damage, the number crunchers will still objectively figure out what set will best enhance that "Arbitrary number" and anyone without that set will be given the collective boot from any worthwhile content. While I would love to have more varied stats, I'm not kidding myself when I recognize that no matter what, people will choose whatever gives them the biggest "arbitrary numbers" because the only thing that's ever mattered in any game ever, is, "Do we have enough arbitrary numbers to down this content".
