MORE IMPORTANTLY, NO AETHERYTES, so all of the above is nullified by teleporting...
Honestly, the problem with "No Aetherytes", is that I imagine only a minority of people would appreciate their removal. I could understand there only being one Aetheryte perhaps, but having no aetherytes at all is a bit too much. Also, by your wording, I assume you also would want mounts and Chocobo Porters removed, so we can't just ride on past any dangerous monsters that otherwise would've stomped us into a greasy smear on the ground if they saw us?

Otherwise, you do have some interesting ideas, though I'm not sure on the Rare Mobs. If anyone can meet the spawn requirements for those things, with how many people there would be running around in zones trying to get them to spawn, eventually people will just be sitting around at their spawn points waiting for someone else to meet the requirements, and then they claim it and kill it. Just like all those horror stories in FFXI with the RMTs using claim bots.
