    They changed Black Mage cast times because they decided they didn't want to design encounters around them. Not people complaining. A lot of people liked having longer cast times.

    I'm pretty sure a big reason why timers was changed WAS because it was seen as annoying to people because any sense of friction to them is bad.

    Cast times, debatably didn't even need to be changed for encounters. Partly it was changed because people complained about them, but they did likely see encounters "benefitting" for blm to change.

    They specifically said in the patch notes that it was to accommodate the increased speed of high-end fights.
