    Once again, the most practical/logical solution would be for them to continue adjusting them (especially their A.I. behavior), as well as implementing proper Egi glamours to be managed from a dedicated UI window (similar to how BLU's spellbook works).
    Carbuncles could still be a thing for Scholar (as egiglamour for the fairy), since SCH seems to be tied closer to Arcanist, so it isn't that much of a deal. And if there is a Job that clearly would benefit the most out of Pet Controls, it is clearly Scholar with his Fairy.

    Cutting SMN completely off from Arcanist is the only way to fix SMN once and for all, so that it can finally become it's own thing.

    Or they could simply go back and "fix" Arcanist, so Summoner (and to a lesser extent, Scholar) gets fixed through it as well.
    And once again, it's already way too late to separate them from a story/lore standpoint, which has been solid/consistent since ARR.

    Also, you keep forgetting all the supplemental resources that rely on Summoner having Egis around (trailers, artwork, CG renders, encyclopaedia, etc.).

    Forever waiting on *new* Egis/summons (e.g. Ramuh-Egi).

    No thanks, the Arcanist toolkit doesn't even fit the SMN job well. It works well for Scholar though. Miasma, Bane, fester, these spells feel like they were added into before SMN was being worked on and the devs just said, "f it, looks good". A lot of what Arcanist does fits Scholar well, but feel wrong for SMN.
