The Main/offhand thing always felt like somethign they didn't want to expand on beyond 1.0 (and now, paladin). the OH slot could be used for secondary things like BRD quiver, MCH lunchboxes, offset NIN daggers, the like. The older the game gets, the more of an archaic design it seems simply because they don't want to move from it (specifically the PLD shields). It could have been another fashion accessory for the true end game for all I care.
