That very same Job questline then goes on to have an Allagan machine fail to scan the WoL's aetheric density signature, which ultimately ends in failure. I personally took it to mean our aetheric levels were so unprecedentedly high that they couldn't be properly vetted by advanced Allagan tech, highlighting what a monster in combat the protagonist is. One more drop in the "FFXIV fails the narrative consistency test" bucket, I guess...
