It is the top end, hardcore, playerbase that make or break a MMO. Without those people MMO's don't have the sub retention to survive.
If someone has 40 hours per week to spend playing the game they should progress at four times the speed of someone that spends ten hours a week. They need to provide content that satisfies the 40 hr per week playerbase or they will go to a MMO that will fill that need.
If you have less time to play you are progressing just as fast as everyone else based on time played.

This is why games lime Dark Souls are so popular with the hardcore crowd. There is no "easymode" difficulty slider to make it more accessible. Everyone works equally hard to advance through the content and reach the credits.
