A sub token would not involve bot-generated gil for the most part, SE can control the price of the sub token just by controlling supply and demand of items, this has a different impact on the economy and it's an impact SE can directly control, and the company would also gain extra profit from this.

A sub token has very few cons compared to 3rd party RMT.
It still does allow for a pay to win. You can just use real money to become easily rich in game, And that's why I'm against any form of RMT.
