If balance was done entirely around meta, BLM, SMN, RDM and SAM would get massive buffs and/or DRG/NIN/BRD would get nerfs.
Where do you get this information, SMN has been a viable pick since it got massive changes about a year ago (I forget the exact patch). It went from being clunky to use to kicking ass and taking names, BLM and RDM on the other hand is really down to party leader preference but they definitely are accepted more than SAM at the very least.
