And I know my answer is rather unsympathetic, sorry. But let's just say that console integration is starting to become far too restrictive in a number of ways.

The big problem is that limiting the number of actions would force the devs to adopt a radically different gamedesign from what we've had in previous expansions. Lately it's worked like this: adding one or two skills, sometimes unnecessary, but without ever reviewing the system in depth, except for 'critical' classes. It's also quite dangerous when you consider the reactions sometimes... Strong, as soon as there's a change that goes too far.
Final fantasy was a console game first, so PC integration is becoming a problem with all the people on PC acting like they matter more as they all use bots to destroy markets and game balance etc.
