I'd rather have an informed community than one that blindly follows their hatred to make decisions.
There are no positives for allowing gear swapping in battle -.- It was the one thing I really hated but was pretty much forced to do in FFXI. All it does is breed elitism and make people carry around even more equipment. I know that as a mage it was worse in FFXI, but for me being a DRG, I was carrying around....

3 leg,
3 helm,
6 rings,
