What is the reason why some abilities can't be combined in one button instead of multiple buttons?
This is not about combining combo actions like in PVP, but specific oGCDs.
For example, combining BLM's Ley Lines and Between the Lines into the same button, so that when having Ley Lines active, the button changes to Between the Lines. Or for SMN's Dreadwyrm Trance / Deathflare and Summon Bahamut / Enkindle Bahamut, or SCH's Summon Seraph / Consolation (maybe with implementing a 1s CD so you don't fat-finger it immediately - but that probably wouldn't work anyway...).
Currently it's like if placing and detonating Earthly Star were two different buttons.
I always thought it's not possible to combine these actions because of the different cooldowns of them, but then we have DRG's Geirskogul and Nastrond. So if it works for those, why not for others (and if those two are combined into one button, why not Jump and Mirage Dive?)?
I also don't think combining some buttons would make the game too easy, it would just be some nice QoL changes and free up hotbar space. Not everything has to be combined of course, but it would absolutely make sense for some few actions, and especially on jobs that already have a lot of oGCDs.
