It's that simple.
I took down my posts on the matter, I hope the other fellow does the same.

On subject:
Tanaka is a FANTASTIC designer, but the idea he had was far too big for the time alloted to this game. MMORPGs are HUGE money pits, and Square is very liberal about their published content- but this came to harm them in their decision involving XIV because the game wasn't ready for BETA, let alone launch etc. Tanaka's design wasn't able to be boiled down to something which could be stretched out in beta testing, and left the testers wanting more content which was in the works but never finished. This is where Yoshi-P is coming in strong. He seems to have a grasp on Tanaka's large idea, but will probably be able to deliver it to us in a more palatable manner.
