Seifer was the secondary villain of VIII, much like Seymour was the secondary villain of X, the Turks were the secondary villains of VII, Beatrix was the secondary villain of IX (debatable, but she comes the closest, even though she's also a good guy), and, yes, Gilgamesh was the secondary villain of V.
And all these characters would feel WEIRD to me in lieu of the choices they made. If it were up to me, the only change on the villain's side would be Xande in place of CoD, but that's personal preference. But I suppose the ones you listed would make good villains for a potential sequel. Though I hope they don't feel the need to trash the entire current roster. I really like a few of the characters on it.

And for the record, I think Gilgamesh should have been a hidden character, if anything, not the main antagonist.

Besides, what did Seymour even DO? Besides making you go through a few extra dungeons, he had almost no lasting impact on... anything. Most ineffectual main-antagonist-for-most-of-the-game ever? Most ineffectual main-antagonist-for-most-of-the-game ever.

Oh, and Golbec made me laugh really hard for some odd reason. Don't ask.
I was merely pointing out that Seifer was not "just a recurring boss". Biggs and Wedge, they were closer to filling that role.

Jecht was always the main villain of X. Jecht was Sin, and Sin was your objective from the time you started the game. He's the big threat there, he's the one you are out to eliminate. Destroying Yu-Yevon was just tying up loose ends.

Golbez was the main villain of IV for a long time, as Wolf pointed out. Certainly as much as Kuja was (after all, while Golbez was just being manipulated by Zemus, Kuja was just being used by Garland). Kain is the one I'd call the secondary villain of IV, though he too switches sides eventually.

The secondary villains should be added to the cast if they decide to make a sequel, but, no, they should not have replaced the choices they made, which were awesome.

And, yes, Seymour sucks. Badly.
