Uh. There's a reason Black Mages cross class Quelling strikes. It's because they put out literally the most single target DPS in a lot of instances and can quite easily draw a lot of enmity. Check FFLogs or just about any thread on Black Mage rotations. Your statement is based on feeling and then you depreciate into a completely inaccurate statement. Please fact check.
