If they made it truly instant, they would have to totally restructure how many of the strategy based bosses are fought. Which is most of the appeal in the battle system in the first place.

..and pvp too..
it's like, a realm re-reborn 3.0

World of Warcraft succeeded for many reasons. Significantly it was the first MMORPG to ever ADVERTISE and MARKET. Blizzard's WoW Marketing budget rivals this game's budget.

The pace is fine, but a slow, unresponsive, sluggish combat system is acceptable?

I have to agree. The sluggish unresponsiveness is starting to get to me. It takes me 5 seconds just to pop 5 cooldowns and by the time I start attacking, half the timer is already wasted. This is especially annoying when I have to silence an enemy and it takes 2 seconds just to fire the ability.

People are prone to being defensive considering how the game's been the focus of heavy scrutiny.
Quick to lash out, slow to concede. That's the life of an internet drone.

And I shall be the queen drone! My nectar will be sour with spite and vitriol!

You probably missed the "Cast Time : Instant" on these abilities

This is where the disconnect usually happens. If you believe this opinion of yours is an absolute, perfectly valid description of the game's combat system and that anybody who disagrees with you is "not seeing the truth because he or she is a white knight defending the entirety of the game as it is", you are delusional. If you believe it's just your opinion, I'll stop right there and we can agree to disagree.

People may like something that doesn't work properly. Is doesn't change the fact that...you know...it doesn't work properly.

Like the ability to tell the difference between opinion and fact?

Jesus christ, how irrational people can be. Have it ever crossed your mind that "instant" only refers to the casting time? It has 0 casting time and can thus not be interrupted by either enemies or your personal movement unlike skills with casting time. It still has an animation time, but that's very different from a casting time, due to precisely the MAJOR point I wrote in previous sentence.
