That was the intention from the start of the remake as far as I can tell. Everything in fatesinger was designed to be independent of bard as a class, but able to also boost bard.

What is that? Like 25% of the promised fixes didn't make it in this last patch because Steelstar fucked up and didn't (forgot?) include them?

Man, I hope he isn't in charge of anything at SSG.
