Abolishing Anima

[Rhomagus]

If you don't have time to run to where you want to go, then you don't have enough time to play anyway.

Pretty much this. Anima is meant to be used by casual players who don't have the time to travel to a place. If you're low on anima you are either 1.) Not a casual player or 2.) Are burning through your anima to get to Bearded Rock when you're in Limsa.
