It's not that they don't want to, it's that realistically most people don't have the time. Grinding out end game content consumes so much time that it leaves little for anything else. I don't know any MMO out there currently that doesn't at least cover your repair costs from running end game content within said content itself. This game unfortunately does not, well not yet.
