Humble disagree.

Fire III (Firestarter) Transpose lines are an example of why Transpose allows for depth in optimizing BLM damage. They are also incredibly old. Other neat Transpose lines:
  • [AF3, min. 1200MP, 2 instantcasts] inst-Despair, Transpose > U-Paradox > inst-Blizz. III {This line removes the -30% damage penalty from AF3 Blizzard III by being in Umbral Ice}
  • Transpose > Xenoglossy + Lucid Dreaming > Thunder III (proc) > Transpose > Fire III (proc) {A Blizzard-less Transpose line for a short AF3 window while keeping Paradox for AF3 for more Firestarter chances}

And even if you stick to playing mostly Standard BLM, you are still going to produce good damage numbers. Transpose simply optimisation for those who want to strive for more, so I don't see the point of neutering skill ceiling because some individuals dislike that their damage numbers aren't as high as someone else's when heavily optimizing.
