The translation was done by a very reputable source who translates a great many things on these forums, and has received personal thanks for doing so from Yoshida himself in the past. You cant just make an argument that he's wrong based on no evidence. Even if he mistranslated a few words it's still pretty clear in lieu of the question being out right asked and answered...
Ok, to make this more clear. You are assuming the translation from Japanese is 100% correct, so i will show you the German Translation, which came online at the same Time, to show you the difference:

F: Wenn ich bestimmte Ausrüstungs-Sets für mehrere Jobs/Klassen verwenden will, muss ich dann eine Kopei davon herstellen oder kann ich ein Set für mehrere Klassen verwenden?

F: If i want to use different Gearsets for different Jobs/Classes, do i have to make a copy of it, or do i have to create a new Set for the other Classes?

A: Ihr werdet separate Ausrüstungs-Sets für alle Klassen/Jobs erstellen müssen. Aber das ist eine Funktion, zu der wir auf jeden Fall Feedback von euch während der Alpha-Phase haben möchten. Bitte probiert es aus und teilt uns mit, was ihr davon haltet.

A: You have to create seperate Sets for each Class and Job. But this is a function we would like to have feedback first, while the Alpha-Phase is going on. Please try it out and tell us what you think about it.
As you can see the translations are TOTALLY different.
