I mean, I can dig that concept having all the crafts at 60 myself and having friends that, like, a million gil is legit money to them but after patch day rolls by and you get your new crafting gear in one way or another and meld it up what do you spend gil on for the next literal year until the next set drops? Taking it one step further why even bother going all out with melds when you can make a ton of cash even just being geared in a junky old set of HQ Chimerical Felt gear with standard melds? I've honestly all but run out of things to buy and I'm not even a dude who goes out of his way to make money or anything at this point. If I start getting low I just pound out a few specialist glamour pieces, make a couple mil and I don't have to worry about it.

Point being, it's beyond easy to make cash in a legitimate fashion in this game to cover anything you could ever want. There's no reason for folks to do morally dubious stuff like screw other players over and buy up as much housing as they can just because Yoshi and team didn't think a housing feature all the way through again and there's nothing to outright stop them.
