Remember that day in Endwalker when party buffs were just completely broken and having two bards or dancers would result in all kinds of nonsense? That was a result of a failed attempt to fix the buff cap iirc.

It's incredible how long this issue has been around, surely it's from legacy code, but even then, looks easier to build it from the ground again like mobile at this point
