Why does EVERYTHING have to be aggressive?

[REPROBEAN_CHILD]

This has been something of a peeve of mine ever since Heavensward was released: why are nearly ALL the monsters hostile? It's not about it being "too hard," but some enemy types, imo don't need to be aggressive. For instance, I could understand if a Griffin, Sanuwa, Endymion, or even a Gaelicat would want to kill you on sight in Sea of Clouds. I don't expect that from a Paissa, though. In anything, it should be a passive monster. The only passive mobs in the HW areas are the elemental sprites and the baby Nankas in the Forelands. I can understand that they want to make the new areas a challenge, but I want it to make sense. All mobs wanting to attack in Churning Mists or Azyz Lla is more believable, because it makes sense from a lore perspective. But I don't see it in some areas, like in Sea of Clouds, Forelands, Hinterlands, and Western Coerthas.
