Another problem is the lack of a place for PLD in endgame. It sucks to hit 75 for the first time, finally be able to merit, and suddenly people avoid you like the plague. Starting as a PLD is just a suggestion, but I believe it's a great idea. It's very linear, and doesn't suffer from some of the mid-levels backtracking for subjobs that other jobs experience.
