Because that is essentially a fabricated comment? As it is quite easy to look up this point, I'll just elaborate on it. Thanks to xivpf, I could not even find a PF that had it locked out the caster jobs at all. Even combinations to the point of double physical ranged are posted at the time of my writing this.

I'll admit I do not dive into Ultimate, so you got me on that. However I've cleared tier on both PCT and DNC. I actually got my alt dancer to 100 just cause every night we had to fill for Physical range we spent hours waiting for any of the three to jump in. To be honest? Yea I think the BLM argument of needing it to be the top caster damage is falling on deaf ears. Square Enix themselves have made the point clear. Regardless of how they change it, redesign it, or what not. PCT was from conception going to be a rival to BLM. It's been said in patch notes, live letter, and so on. It's a dead horse and tired of hearing it.

As for what I think on the matter of its downtime bonus, I've said this elsewhere and I'll say it here as well. I do think other jobs deserve some downtime abilities. It would require building each up from ground again, but that is a byproduct of designing one job up versus to redoing all of them. I'd also love to see a break from the 2-minute burst windows and a change of how encounters and fights are. I'd say that would make for a point to actually change how fights and what job benefits where. As right now, if you want to sweat the meta, there is no reason to bring anything but the top 4 damage jobs and rest the comp for optimization.
