And now you are telling that I am the one reading too much into it? Get lost. Their answer can't be more clear. Do you want me to copy paste it again?

"We are currently in the middle of investigating how much of the population owns housing, so this hasn't been decided yet. We will look into this a bit more before making a decision."
tl;dr: "We don't know yet if Shirogane will be open for everyone or not". I have no clue how you can think it means something else.
Context.

Q: Is the timing for purchasing plots in Shirogane the same for free companies and individuals?
A: We are currently in the middle of investigating how much of the population owns housing, so this hasn't been decided yet. We will look into this a bit more before making a decision.

Your TLDR is an assumption on your part based on your particular interpretation of the live letter answers. Have you even considered the uproar that would happen if they tried to restrict Shirogane to FC's only? It would end up being a PR nightmare, especially when single player FC's start scooping up houses to flip. So no, I won't "get lost". I am 100% confident that when Shirogane opens up it will pretty much work like all the other residential zones outside of the whole new "moving" feature. Could I be wrong? Sure that's a possibility, but I personally believe its so remote a possibility that its not even worth getting worked up over. I guess we'll just have to see when it goes live won't we? If I am wrong I am wrong. It's no skin off my back. I've got my ideal house already and have no interest in moving. I just think its silly to get people in a tizzy over an "issue" when there has been no indication whatsoever from the devs that it might actually be a thing.
