It has not even been 1 week since the release of the Viper class and the devs want to change it which in my opinion is too hasty. Changing it so early without giving more time to see how it performs in raids and giving players more time to learn it would do injustice to the development team who had spent so much time and effort in making such a fun class.
Most players probably have not unlocked the class yet let alone tried to learn its Lv.100 rotation at a striking dummy.
Positional makes them really fun and engaging and is not difficult to memorise. Every 3rd combo's icon colour tells us which side to strike; green=flank, red=rear. The other pair is Hunter's Coil=flank, Swiftskin's Coil=Rear. We also have True North to nullify positional requirements.
The fast pace and busyness of the class is what sets it apart from other jobs which is severely lacking in Final Fantasy XIV. The busyness is what appeals to players who had spend significant time on Viper.
Please do not change Viper it is one of the best class in FF14 currently and players need more time to level it, test it and learn it. Streamlining it and homogenising it so early would be too hasty and as mentioned earlier do injustice to the development team who clearly had put so much effort into designing Viper's rotation, visuals and aesthetics.
