It has not been established as fact the the existing classes are non-functional. Many players have been enjoying the existing classes, and have been quite successful. The classes certainly need adjustment, but many players have embraced them. What is being asked for is not removal of the existing classes, just the addition of traditional job names in one way or another.
Naoki Yoshida described two ways of doing this. Neither of which involved removing the old classes.
Yes, one of his choices sounds like an Augment, maybe a Title System or tree system that gives bonuses for using skills from a specific "Job" no matter what your "Class" is.
I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.
