    This again.. Some jobs barely have any buttons, so just play those. If you're not going to make an attempt into getting to know a job, don't ask to make them easier >_>

    Because hitting 2 after 1 and before 3 was ever so difficult and engaging a mechanic as to be worth losing n-1 buttons per combo, and whatever actual complexity could have filled that space, for?

Just to pick something off the top of my head, when RDM has 20|20 gauge the action Moulinet upgrades to Enchanted Moulinet. WHM could easily be changed so that when you have one or more lilies, Cure II is upgraded to Afflatus Solace and Medica is upgraded to Afflatus Rapture.
    This, on the other hand, would cost WHM some actual functionality. Want to save mobility for the likes of O4S Black Hole mechanic? Too bad; you're forced to burn lilies before you can again access your basic heals. Want that handy weave-space for later? Nope. Gotta use it now or be locked out of basic heals.

    There are ways to, without adding button cost, still consume those opportunities only when one wants to, but simply hot-swapping a spell that provides more than mere MP efficiency over a basic capacity (thereby making its affordances impossible to bank) is not a good idea.
