Yeah but you don't have to max out everybody's HP via Junction. That's the point. You can choose to do that or keep it even and have a White Mage, or just do whatever you want.

Nobody is forcing you to break FFVIII or forcing you to make it so FFXII is playing itself. You are doing it on your own will.
