You're being disgustingly ableist about it and throwing the words depression and therapy around way too easy over someone essentially disagreeing with you, especially since they didn't mention it at all. Chill.
And yes, these things can be pretty disheartening - to both sides. The new players who can't do what the higher level player can, which will only rub salt in the wounds of people who already resent the leveling process. And seriously, yeah, having one PLD with access to their entire kit and one PLD who doesn't because they're on-level, why does that make sense to anyone?
And then it's for the higher level players, too. Way I see it, that means higher level players will have - more engaging gameplay? But also basically have to work somewhat harder to reach the same damage output as the sprout who hits the one button. And no, they won't let you keep your kit with the same potencies if they implement this at all, that's out of the question.

I'd sooner hope they kept the leveling experience in mind when designing classes rather than just unlock max-level kits all around.
