Seriously, you'd find more relevance towards existing (real) jobs' PvE kits in a design decision from Blue Mage as evidence than in XIV's PvP. PvP has been a thing unto itself since Stormblood.

"There may be an odd quirk of coding by which it's actually harder to copy-over a past design for stacked actions for specific combos without also doing the extra work of removing the existing, separate actions" would actually be more reasonable than "It was included as a small part of PvP's sweeping changes towards simplification, so anything that uses it would doubtless face the same lack of options as PvE."
Was more debating your stance that it would be an option with proof from GNB's recent change in EW with Gnashing Fang's combo. It wasn't an option for players then and I don't see why SE would change it's stance here.

As I've said, condensing a combo is more likely to also come with more buttons to replace it to cut down on button bloat than be an option for players who have actual needs for them to be condense for QoL or ease of access.

And even if they did decide for it to be an option now, that doesn't mean they won't change their stance later to address new skills being added by forcing it on everyone else.

Its a lose-lose situation.
