You don't have to run or unlock the entirety of Coil or the CT series because they are completely optional side-stories. Likewise with Hildebrand, Gold Saucer, a HUGE chunk of the dungeons (though granted, you probably have to run them anyway to hit ilvl reqs), the entirety of the crafting content, and so on and so on.
The main story does not constitute "ALL of the previous game". Not even remotely so. I know hyperbole is the order of the day, but you could at least be a little more accurate than that.

That being said, it's not like I don't sympathize with your position, but frankly, you still have a LOT of the game to see and unlock to begin with, so it's not exactly like you're currently starved for content and besides that, there is a limit to just how accommodating SE can be towards players that don't... actually... play the 'game' part of the game.
While I say that, however, I will agree that it's kind of fucked if they end up gating the new jobs behind that requirement as well. I can totally understand why someone would want to play through the story as their 'correct' class. We'll see how things play out from here. I really doubt you guys are the only ones concerned about this.
