Radiant Aegis is completely fine with 30 sec duration. I have played summoner over 8 years and this is skill is actually extremely valuable during prog. Summoner was always the first person who died in the raid if some mitigation/heal was missing. Now I can save myself for using it for every big aoe regardless do I need it or not.

Searing Ligth however is really annoying to use, because some mechanics not allow you to and delaying few globals for it is pretty big dps loss. In hesperos 2 rank1 summoner (before patch) was stacking spell speed so you don't have to delay rotation. Fight does not even have downtime.
If you wanna check akh morn window looks like this

Yeah, I've figured full spell speed could fix the unsync issue, I'm raiding casually so I don't go for spell speed but its pretty bs if the best way is to stack speed imho lol.

Also, for those who say it was a patch just for number. Fair point; however,

This is not a firepower boost, this is quality of life. Probably for you, main black mages. I've also stated that fixing the rotation isn't something I expect right away nor the community should expect. But I do believe we have the right to have a discussion with the dev team, have them address the issue. They've yet to mention anything suggesting SMN rotation is fine right now which it is not.

PLD and BLM was the great winner second was DNC. Phys Ranged is still underperforming however. They absolutely gutted Machinist mains and quite frankly, they've further encouraged Summoners to do silly strategies like only casting Ruin III on adds phase of P3S now that Phoenix is even stronger.

I also want to point out that, while I'm sure it isn't the case. It sure does feel the dev favor specific jobs. BLM didn't need that much and yet, they gained a massive 4% Firepower boost.
