Ok, but were you just not logging in to get myth tomes at all before 2.1 or something?

So...in all likelihood you will still be doing dungeons with your buddies. I value playing with my friends, but so much to preclude myself from receiving this reward. You are confusing placing a value on something, and preferring it absolutely to everything else always.
You're kind of assuming infinite time spent playing the game here, though; If i didn't feel any time pressure at all -- if the cap didn't exist, if myth tomes didn't exist -- then yeah, i would just idly do DR as i felt like it for whatever alternate reward (nerd score? titles? cosmetic items? company seals or something else that's slightly desirable but not the absolutely most valuable thing in the game right now?) -- or just because i felt like it. I don't even know how many times i joined people asking for help with praetorium, or cape westwind or even story mode ifrit in 2.0, just because i like doing stuff for people.

It seriously isn't that playing with strangers galls me -- If i play with one of my friends, i am also playing with two strangers -- it's that playing with even one friend raises the pressure i feel to cap weekly fairly significantly due to my now being ineligible for DR. And i do not really need to feel any more pressure, since...

I'm usually really nice but golly there are a couple people who just feel the need to be really acerbic and superior when other people have a problem, and apparently only because it isn't a problem for them personally, and that does get my goat
