Maybe you should go play on the Japanese servers if you think they do it better. This is why SE locked out certain content from DF such as Extreme primals and later unlocked so anyone can try to do it.

In mid 2016 there were a mass exodus of "elitist" players from NA/EU server to JP servers, the casual players who stayed celebrated their victories in keeping the game fun for everyone, and the "right" for people to play however they want. Later that year with 3.4 release, SE had to put out several emergency hotfixes for NA/EU server to double/triple nerf most of the story trials in order to help players get pass certain part of the stories. This did't go well with the "elitist" who are currently playing in JP server since their version got affected too. Next year, in order to fix the root of the problem, SE released FFXIV mobile version, specific targeting the NA/EU player base. It was a huge success, people only need to tap the screen for their character to attack or heal. A "premium" version even have the "auto all", and include a side windows for your favorite netflix/youtube shows.
P.S: I also heard many progression tracking website had to adjust to add the normal version of 8-man content too, for NA/EU NA/EU-first.
P.P.S: add obligated /s tag just in case.
Those elitist usually quit after 1-2 wipes anyways so does really matter if they stick around or not cause they not helping the weaker clear the content anyways.

I do and I don't regret my move from Gilgamesh to Tonberry (Latency issues mostly since Australian) Not even trying to be "glorious japan!" about it but the player difference even from English speakers themselves playing on Tonberry is night and day.
3.1 was the worst though, loads of NA players moving to Tonberry for their savage clears because they hear about how easy it is to clear on JP servers not even realizing it's their attitude that decided whether they get a clear or not not just player skill. Happy most of them moved back after 3.2, Tonberry is a lot better these days, can't even imagine trying to clear Minstrels Ballad: Nidhogg on a NA server
