Maybe they will bring it back in 7.0 and make it a selling point of 7.0. A marketing strategy.

You think the new Melee Job is going to be Corsair.
But you have been deceived...

The new Job will be...

...Kaiten.

Kaiten will be the Job. The entire Job will be Kaiten. All buttons will be Kaiten. You will Kaiten your Kaiten before Kaitening. All buttons, all animations, all resource management; the Job will be Kaiten. The full and complete embodiment of Kaiten, having thrown off its ephemeral imperfections. When you change into the Job, the Job stone will he the Kaiten icon, and your character will turn into the Kaiten icon. It won't even have arms and legs, that would be imperfect. It will just be the Kaiten icon floating in the air, performing Kaiten.

The tagline at the end of the full DawnTrail trailer will be thus:

"Become what you must. Become the Warrior of Kaiten."

Or...

Kaiten was removed so they could give it to Corsair.

You joke, but Dark Arts was ripped from Dark Knight and given to Sage as Eukrasia, so I could easily see them doing it

[Burmecia]

Kaiten was removed so they could give it to Corsair.

Please be this.

you meme, but after watching them gut AST and distribute its skills across the healer role and then cleave out its sect system so sage wouldn't feel intimidated, I'd bet 11 dollars that the new melee job has some pre-emptive button you press before doing your actual chunky skill that reminds people of kaiten. they kinda did it with the aoes too, didn't they? removed conal from jobs that had it for years, replacing it with awkward circle aoes. but then randomly gave conal aoes to other slightly newer jobs ... was it rpr? I don't remember. main point being, they love removing stuff and then returning it later but to other jobs entirely lol

Seen argument points before with Pre-changed Tenka Goken, on how it would be to outdated for the new EW content with gigantic sized mobs... Yet it's not like Conal shaped attacks from us have been deleted from XIV. Other Jobs have them still and hell even we have Ogi Namikiri, proving that Tenka Goken could work just as fine if they buffed it's Radius. Instead? the following changed happened...

• Tenka Goken shape changed from Cone to Circle
• Tenka Goken does not require Tab target
• Tenka Goken radius increased

Coupled with Hissatsu: Kaiten removal, turned fun darting in and out + slight thinking of your positioning to deal maximum efficient damage ( which isn't hard to do ) into stand still in the center of the pack and just spam Hissatsu: Kyuten i.e your AoE Shinten version, thoughtlessly and effortlessly... It doesn't feel as rewarding. Yet this really sounds silly as the content you will do AoE rotations is already dumb as bricks. Dungeons, Fates etc... but the content is already that boring, coupled with bland AoE rotation = extra extra Boring...

For me it always felt satisfying to be able to do the old rotation properly to help make any dungeon or fate farming go faster ever so slightly. I'd get compliments that we never have done this so fast by random strangers. Makes me want to do that tiny bit of extra for the party I'm with. Now instead its expected... The emphasis is no where near to highlight the user piloting the Job, it's the Job itself that feels like it plays itself like duh you picked Samurai of course you deal damage who cares who plays it... doesn't matter if its you, them or a monkey piloting it now... It never was complicated to play, but now its really extra dumb to - I'm essentially doing Roulettes and Savage content while watching Netflix... That should not be the point of a game, I play the game to play the game not feeling like a mehh? + let me watch Edgerunners or something again while I coffee sip weave mid pull for funzies...

I would not mind seeing what other Jobs actually have lost in detail like AST mhm
