That is a decision you, the player, make. If you want the thing on another character, wait until you're up for it again. Chances are by then the thing can be unsynced and nerfed besides, making the experience much less tedious.

or those who have mains they aren't really happy with their characters and want to remake them
The solution to that one is called 'Fantasia'.

This is an MMORPG. Most of the content is planned to e farmed for long durations, and people having alts is one thing that fuels back into this. If anything, a slightly more logical solution wouldn't be to make them account wide, but make them transferable. Like when you buy the single-chara item on the Mog Shop, it asks you which chara to send it to. You'd still be able to provide your lower alts with the thing, but your main would have to keep farming if you want it for more than one character.
