Very conflicted about the cash shop...

Vanity really gave crafters a lot of stuff to make. Minions and mounts provided incentive to do certain content. Why sidestep that completely with a cash shop for those things? Rhetorical question, btw.

They say it's only vanity or fashion items but come on, vanity items are some of the most sought after items in the game.

At the same time, players on the forums are starting to complain that cash shop cosmetics should be currently obtainable in the game...and where do most of the desirable cosmetic items come from? Crafters. High-end raids. Some people are so alarmed at the slightest whiff of "cash shop" that they don't stop to think it through.
