This is still an RPG, not Tekken or whatever. They struck a fair balance.
On the other hand, 2.5 seconds feels incredibly slow when compared to a game like WoW that has a 1-1.5 second GCD. It may not seem like a big difference on paper, but played side by side that extra second makes XIV's combat feel like molasses.

Now of course this game was designed around 2.5 seconds. It works really well here and I don't see any reason to lower it. Let's not pretend like faster combat can't work in an RPG though.
