At the very least, if not rank, then I'd rather see favoured classes make a return and make it so equipping an item on any other class but favoured is just as good as being nude, whether it has materia or not. That's balanced to a degree.

Because I don't think that a level 2 marauder should be wearing level 48 skirts etc. Not effectively or anything. But as we can change classes so often making the bulk of crafted gear restricted to specific classes is frustrating. Necessary or not is a subjective opinion, that I'm sure we could agree. There are lots of frivolous requests from both sides and it is a visual interactive experience, you cannot blame a person for wanting to experience it a certain way for purely aesthetics. I suppose you could argue compromise was made with undyed gear, but since that too is also going out the window who knows. :/

I just hate being unable to equip certain pieces for fun unless they're dated even if I match level in that class while on another.
Oh well.
What do you mean about undyed gear? Yoshi stated he wanted to have a whole palate of colored-dyes that would not at all affect stats, but at the moment that's hard to implement due to textures (please don't ask me what that means, I'm a Chemistry nerd, not a computer graphics nerd).

Hey, I get you. Though I don't think the same way, I get it. I just think there are currently more important things to address, and the RP community is a minority, so sadly it will be catered to the least.
