Where is your evidence? Pony farms are hot right now despite the fights providing outdated combat gear, vanity gears are the among the hottest selling items around, minions are among the most expensive items on the market board, glamor crystals sell for triple digits of what they actually cost to make. Vanity makes eorzea spin. There is no question about that.

How about this? You know how leveling gear are all simple and down to earth? How about SE suddenly make every single gear past level 50 attainable outside of coil ALL look like these. Then puts ALL the fancy looking gear, including the lvl 1 glamour ones (swimsuits, spring dresses, etc) into coil as lvl 1 gear plus all the minions and mounts as coil rewards AND THEN remove all dyes and glamour shards from the marketboard and npc merchants and the recipe books of every single player in the game and make them only drop in coil as untrade-ables. This way every single player only gets combat gear outside of gear and everybody can easily have i130 gear easily but only coil raiders can look fancy and everybody else gets to look plain.

Then we reveal that this is all your idea to the world. Do you really think you'll be seen as the savior of the populace at large?

Btw, please stop throwing the word "fallacious" around to diss people's argument against you when you keep making them yourself.
