It's a SMN exclusive thing to compensate for SE not delivering new Egi as claimed pre HW, so no don't expect SCHs to get this system.

Personally I see a quick cure-all for this. Multi-color carbuncles, let the gems represent each egi/fairy and mimics its attacks. Give each thier own little twist or animation for the skills and boom. I know I'd take a dark red carbuncle over ifrit if possible.
I'd rather be able to give the fairy outfits like so:

Coming from someone who mains SCH, SMN needs it more badly than SCH does. Given how difficult they are making it sound, I would rather they get some SMN ones out first and not delay it to do SCH ones.
That said, the idea of giving Scholars moogles is pure gold.
How they can rationalize this honestly is just give SCH/SMN/ACN an arcanist quest at 30 that allows them to glamour to the different carbuncles.
Say that the longer you learn to manipulate Aether the easier it becomes to control it. They do something simple like summon a very obviously Ice Based carbuncle (say Pearl) and have it breath on the Metal Dummy asking that you touch the dummy to see how cold it is. When you touch it though, its hot, VERY HOT. Your character is shocked. Using a great show of mastery over aether, your teacher reveals, that aspects can be hidden to the naked eye by focusing Astral (Light) and Umbral (Darkness) to create a preconceived image. They encourage you to think of it as a charm that has limited applications and is easiest to pull off when you are familiar with the Glamour you are trying to preform (Carbuncles).
A follow up quest at 35 would be for SMN only that might branch from this or completely take the topic and say how mere arcanists can only glamour but you a powerful Summoner enriched in ancient magics can go beyond glamour and take aspects of the Egi entirely into your Summons.
Much much later when SMN has received their last glamour and the developers feel they could spare a little work (even though it WAS NOT PROMISED TO US) on swapping color pallets on Lilly and give it as an additional quest at 35 as well.
Scholars are not expecting to get this when SMN comes out, but we would love if you could give us some glamour options (Carby!) since a large part of the framework has already been completed.
Both SCH and SMN should get the pet glamour, but SCH pets look better, so I can understand why they are focusing on SMN pets.
What's stopping us finding another fairy as part of the SCH storyline, Lily wasn't the only one. Plus SE change the lore as it suits them so we can too. ;P
I'd love a male fairy, or the ability to change the fairies clothes like the fairy in Final Fantasy Mobius...
