You sure it's necessary? I mean, the relative wealth ratios will still be the same as it is now, just reduced by a factor of 10. YoshiP specifically said that he does not want to rollback progress in a past letter. He was talking about EXP and SP specifically, but I'd suspect that his feelings towards earned gil would be similar?

We might as well just be resigned to this current high level of gil to be the baseline, implement measures to keep it stable, and then just be resigned to this baseline as long as it can keep steady.

Definitely. EVE Online does this and their economy is rockin'. Square Enix needs to follow suit. Honestly, one more person on the payroll isn't gonna cost that much, and the benefits would be great.
