Actually, you should want to neither encourage nor discourage anyone from playing a particular role - You should simply want to empower people to play whatever they prefer without repercussions.

In that, XP scrolls are fairly pointless. It's just another reward you throw at people that will completely lose all value the moment they got what they wanted, like Seals, like Cracked Clusters, like Tomes, like Gil, like any other material reward. Moreover, it's a pointless reward unless you level jobs for completion sake - If you level a job to actually PLAY it, because it seems FUN, not playing it defeats the purpose of leveling it - That person isn't going to forever queue as a different job than the one they actually want to play. And what's even worse, it does nothing for non-leveling roulette queue times, so even if these people tank and heal their way to 70, they're suddenly hit by a queue wall anyway.

It's a temporary measure to fix a permanent issue and an incomplete one at that. I grant you that it's "easy" - Because it's a bandaid. And bandaids are fine to tide people over while you're working on an actual fix - They cannot and should not replace the actual fix however.
