Are you saying “oh it has lots of free casts so therefore it’s super mobile” as a statement indicating the melee don’t know what they amean e talking about and over inflating their jobs difficulty to put PCT down or are you saying “obviously if you understood casters you’d realise that even if PCT has less free casts it can move them around more giving them more functional movement” as a knock against people who think PCT is difficult as a more “melee are harder” by association stance

I’ve found in the “should PCT be at the same level as the high melees” both sides tends to exaggerate the difficulty of their class (uptime for casters, melee range for melee) and diminish the difficulty of the other
I don't have a horse in this race. I exposed my feeling on how the difficulty PCT feels to me personally when playing it compared to other casters like BLM or even RDM, and got immediately attacked and made fun of by a certain someone that came up with half baked arguments and pseudo log analyses. I admitted that I got a fact wrong on insta casts, but the guy continued to dig himself a grave after that.

People do indeed like to inflate the difficulty of their jobs to find some illusory idea of superiority and how their job should be doing more damage than the others. Especially prevalent with a lot of melees and casters, as you can guess.
