I dont want to have to press a button and stop my rotation just to move an ability, it sounds good on paper but the question is does that actually feel good to play? if buffing the duration really is a problem then either rework it or take it out the game and replace it with something better and again I would say the mojority of your damage should not be tied to doton that's also an issue. 8.0 is probably when they will most likely change it anyway if im being honest.
Removing doton would make ninja more similar to other jobs. People always complain that all the jobs are the same, and this would just homogenize ninja with the other classes. Doton is a limitation with a powerful payoff if executed correctly. In my opinion limitations are what make jobs fun and unique because you have to play around it. Also, Viper is right there if you want a more standard melee... I don't see why they should fundamentally change how ninja aoe feels when it's been this way since ARR.
