While I don't personally care for your (Shougun) version, I do prefer it to Kalise's, which feels more like downplaying and slowly removing the limited aspects from BLU in order to make it into a standard job.

My main gripe with your version is that you're reducing the limited aspect to bard's music playing. As some small and quite insignificant feature. And to me, the limited side is what captures my attention. I would likely just lvl a standard BLU to max and then ignore it. Like I did with RDM.

I have little interest in the fan creations of standard BLU. If it means I can keep limited BLU and other people can main it, great. However, if the standard part is too dominant and the limited some half forgotten after thought, I'm less likely to support it.

This also counts for the other jobs.
