Are the apartments as big as the FC little rooms, or are they at least bigger? I already have my own room due to the FC house, dunno if there's any point packing up my stuff to try get an apartment if it's still a useless, tiny space.

They are the same size as an FC room.
They are there to stay though, while an FC room can be lost for any number of reasons (you wanting to leave the FC, having a fight, the leader suddenly going crazy and disbanding the FC, etc...)
So I'd say what this room gives you is additional safety, especially if you have destroyed-on-removal furniture.
Or just a different area to live in.
Even if they dropped PS3 support in 4.x the Ishgard housing areas would be supported for the PS3. As long as free companies can buy houses they will always need to support that area for the PS3 even if the latest expansion hasn't came out for the console as those PS3 users would be able to teleport there. If they disabled teleporting there then they just limited the amount of FCs those users can join.
Well there is always another option which I think could keep some players happy but I don't know if it would work with the game as a whole. The implementation of a rental system, eg: Person A (who wants gil and not housing etc) buys an apartment, decorates it and rents it out to Person B who wants space and is willing to pay so much gil per month/week . Just like renting a property/apartment occurs in real life. So you could in essence like share it, to allow for an unfurnished apartment to be furnished by the buyee and in that case sharing could be the rental agreement...
But I know even that if there is some way of doing this, the housing mafia types would just be a pain for all of those wanting to have their own space etc.
I wonder if apartments have a place for the mini-aetherite that grants you a cheap port to your home. If so, that could be a reason for even someone who has a house wanting another. FC house in one region, personal house in another, apartment in a third could equal three cheap teleport locations.
