    My guess is they designed Meditation and Anatman to be used exclusively during downtime, while they designed Flamethrower to be used actively in combat. I doubt they even realize that Meditation fishing was already a thing in Stormblood and that this is just a logical expansion on it since its use wasn't as prevalent as Monk using GL Recovery Tools as a means of spamming Tornado Kick. And this strikes me as being just like the TK Rotation all over again, the devs haven't considered how the tools they've put on jobs will be used outside of the use their intended uses, whereas we're willing to do basically anything in the name of optimization even if it utterly ruins the way a job feels.
