Welcome to Playstation. Everything goes through their servers... EVERYTHING. Like it or not, that's how PS4 and PS3 rolls. It's part of the deal when you develop for the system, and the alternative is simply not releasing FFXIV on the console.
So... you can argue til yer blue in the face really. The ones you need to argue with are Sony.
Network features are hardcoded to PS4 OS. I don't think that SE can do anything about it. FFXIV wont be able to use the network features of PS4 unless they use the one from the OS. I'm sure SE have already done their best by not requiring PS+.
If you have concerns for PSN, I think you have to voice it out to Sony.
Like the others said, it's less to do with what Squeenix wants on the PS and more what Sony says they're allowed to do.
Ya SE has zero say in this. Blame Sony.
As a PS4 player I can definitely say that this complaint needs to be on the Sony forums. There's no use making a case against SE for this.
