I think that behaviour is by design and not a bug.
I noticed the exact same thing and i find it just as stupid. I hope it is changed to be selectable instead of this toggle like thing we have atm.

[JaydeDancer]

I wonder if it was always like that but we just never noticed because we only had two category buttons before.

[Alys_Silvertongue]

I set up my forum account specifically to ask for this change. The UI in XIV is normally very solid, this feels like a big oversight. It should be a tab select like the jobs at the top of the window.

I agree that it's likely because it cycled previously and we didn't notice until there were three.

Even if this is a larger lift to replace, it is still extremely worth it for ease of access. Flipping back and forth between grade 5 alkahests and grade 7 tinctures is way more annoying now.

This may be a concession to people who play with controllers instead of mouse+keyboard.
It's not that big a deal, IMO --takes just an extra quarter-second to get to the list you want.

Can't speak to developer intentions, but for me as a controller user this feels 100% like expected behaviour. A lot of controller navigation is done by repeated button presses (touch pad button to cycle through certain hud elements, R1 to cycle between hotbars, etc), so this does not stand out to me in any way. There are quite a few instances of similar buttons around the menus, actually, but this seems to be the first and only one that swaps between more than two. My guess is that it simply acts as a single button, rather than three, and it probably always has. That's also why the label displayed doesn't change depending on which part you mouse over. So I'm pretty sure this is intended behaviour and it is unlikely to get "fixed".
