This is just appalling

Yes I can because I understand how accounting works (its what I am trained at)

Awesome. I'm trained in software development.

Even then IF, and this is a big IF, they did have the cash shop times created from FF14's budget then that budget would have been allocated taking into consideration earnings from the cash shop meaning that without the cash shops earnings FF14's budget would have been reduced as the cost of developing cash shop items would have increased the amount of funds allocated to the game.

Simply put your sub isn't paying for those items. If your not buying them off the cash shop you haven't paid for them.

Nothing you've said demonstrates that. Why would Square carve out an entirely separate budget for cash shop items, especially since they are using members of the FFXIV dev team to create those assets in the first place?
