Just because you don't like auto-attack doesn't mean everyone doesn't, I am a mage so I don't really see how its useful for me, but I'm sure there might be a dd or tank who wants it.
The UI is a joke, but FFXI's was just as awful, and as has been said a million times, they are already working on a new UI anyway.

And if people think auto-attack should be implemented just because it will be "useful" then they need to reassess their priorities. A combat system should be designed toward fun, not convenience and usefulness. TERA, GW2, Blade & Soul are all leading the field in active-combat and SE has decided, at the behest of every FFXI fan that can't get over the past and move on, to regress back into combat mechanics from 2001.

Nice one. Way to go FFXI fans.
