An mmo, and rpgs in general, tend to come with the understanding that each new character you make(or save file you start) will require work being put in to get it on the same level as your other character or file.

Next best thing is to come to a middle ground, and that's either what I said before about sharing the quest reduction server-wide, or changing catalysts so they don't nuke 20% of a symbol's exp upon transfer.
You also have to remember that you and many others do not encompass or speak for the rest of the player base. What you and the many others absolutely refuse to accept might sound reasonable to others.

It'd be like sharing starforce server-wide, and that just sounds silly. What I'd like to see, if it were possible, is for the progression-based daily quest reductions to be applied server-wide. If you get to morass on one character, all characters on that server only have to do one vanishing journey quest to get the full eight-symbol reward, one run of hungry muto for the full reward, and so forth.
I feel it's a decent compromise, since we all know full well they'll never change it so arcane force is server-wide. You'd still have to work at it, but the amount of work for a newly-5th-job character would be drastically reduced and, I feel, reduce the hesitance for most people to switch mains.
