So... that spiderman shirt... (new job tease)

So there you have it, blue magic that exists in the game currently.

They WERE until developers sought use for them otherwise. Recycled abilities mean nothing. (We play amid a franchise where recycling assets is among its lifeblood.) Aero, Stone, Freeze, and Flash exist in a game as not Blue Magic that had a Blue Mage in it. In some games they were, and in some they are not. Because some now exist in this game as other purposes holds no significant meaning other than those who made the game found use for abilities elsewhere.

That was my point, but thank you for spelling it out as well as you did. If someone wants to be a Blue Mage, all they have to do is RP it, since a few 'traditional' blue magic skill names exist in game, usable by current jobs.
