This would be fine ... if they stopped doing all of this MID EXPANSION!
nobody would bat an eye if they removed Kaiten, reworked the crit system but then also add 2 new things in it's place, now with the removal of Kaiten and their slow transition to go away from Crit builds just feels like they have no idea what they're doing and just trying to band aid their issues.

Were the sams at savage complaining that they weren't top dog? yeah, but it was better than getting the identity stripped simply because likely in 7.0 there's gonna be a rework of sorts, it's just bad.
keep the job as it is now (some tweaks here and there no problem) but leave the big changes for an expansion.
Remember how underwhelming DRK and SCH felt went their announced the jobs for Endwalker? this would've been fixed for 7.0 in this way.
"look at how these jobs are changing due to the changes we've made for the next expansion!"
You'll see SAM sporting a new ability/gauge/resource/whatever and the world would go wild with speculation.
