It just feels like they are erring on the side of overly cautious because they're afraid dungeon queues would suffer if players could level 1 extra job off side quests and the occasional FATE (not grinding them) for some reason.
Side Quests scale to your level. I did the Ultima Thule Quests with a level 83 Bard, for example.
