Ul'dah should have an aethernet shard by the market.

But on the other side Ul'dah and Gridania have GC headquarters near aetheryte which is very useful for squadron management and daily turn-ins, while Limsa has it in another zone.

How about some aetheryte in Hinterlands, the most inconvenient zone to get into? It actually already there in center, just inactive.

You're looking for the Aftcastle aetheryte in Limsa. Takes you right to their doorstep.

And people have been asking for a Hinterlands aetheryte for forever now. SE said it was supposed to be Idyllshire, but it's still pretty annoying and inconvenient.

Originally Idyllshire was not a zone but just a sub-section of the Hinterlands. Upon seeing Revenant's Toll impact on the game as a major hub they decided it'd be less stressful to separate it. To me it reflect how rushed 2.0 was - Having to separate the game into zones (which don't even try to connect to each other...which is even worse....) and to not be able to accommodate an endgame hub.
