Case in point, WHM's gauge is utterly useless. They still made one. Therefore, concerns regarding Bard songs is perfectly justified because it will be apart of the whole consolidation thing if they go down that route.

Being willfully obtuse about it won't change that.
I don't see them doing that. PvP abilities are extremely different from PvE abilities. I know that you're aware of that, so I'm not sure why you think they would even do it. PvP is reduced down to less than 10 abilities for every job. Bard doesn't even have 3 songs in PvP. BLM has more mobility in PvP.

None of the jobs play anything like they do in PvE in PvP. They were purposely completely redesigned. Consolidating combos is nothing close to that.
