It's a little tangential, but personally, I've never treated the Soul Stones for any Job as an IC thing for PCs (sure, some NPC might hold one and be the Job Of Legend, but it's not my character). As "things only one person can have," I feel they fall into the category of story elements RPers are able to and should make generic or ignore -- just like how you get your airship pass or magitek armor in the MSQ.
