To be precise:
"What began with a few stray adventurers practicing the wisdom of old, quickly swelled ino a movement that caught the attention of entire nations. It is said that the Maelstrom has formed a provisional unit of elite troops who are being trained in the ways of Albalathian warrior clans. In similar fashion, the Order of the Twin Adder is rumoured to be considering the integration of bards and their traditional battlesongs into the company's regular army. Military leaders across the realm are taking notice, and none can deny that the race to revive disciplines long thought lost is steadily gaining momentum."
While the next paragraph goes onto say that for centuries, the art of the Dragoon was not practiced outside of Ishgard, that's in regard of the past rather than current events making it entirely possible for Adventurers to learn the art.
As for the 30 and then 10 issue - it's 30 unnamed Dragoon Knights. Fill yourself in. As for the 10 - beyond, again, being unnamed, there is such a thing as a "10 minute retirement". Have your character decide to put down their spear after the battle on the Steps only for them to hear news of Ravana and/or Bismarck. To hear news once again of the Garleans and they realize, the war with dragons is over but there is still threats to Ishgard and return to duty. Or, have them become an adventurer, mercenary, or just a plain old wanderer.
Beyond that, for other jobs, the limited amount is becoming a less limited amount apparently.
You're mentioning the Job crystals that most people are okay with people RPing, though. When people aqre wary about people RPing as jobs they generally mean the ones like WHM, BLM, etc. The ones explicitly called forbidden or incredibly rare in the lore.
Ones like WAR/BRD/MNK, where there are people and organizations actively training new people are fine and I never see them being pestered about it.
It speaks in an absolute language - inclusive of all Jobs - rather than speaking in a partial language - using words like "some", "most", or "common". Using the game's story, it is the Adventurer that takes part in the story that "starts" a revival of sorts, but it is apparently being passed on.
For instance, in the White Mage section of the lore it says:
"Some five centuries past, the elementals relented, and did at last allow the legacy of the Amdapori magi to wielded by a chosen few. The Padjal, revered eaders of Gridania, have since served as stewards of white magic and oversee its careful instruction."
Note how they have to be chosen by the elementals, but that white magic is being taught to people by the Padjal? It means limited quanity but that it is not left to just the storyline adventurer.
