Instances are cool and all, but....

Or you teleport to an adjacent zone and zone in to make sure you get in instance 1. Likely wouldn't take significantly longer than running from a teleport.

What you are talking about is a band-aid. A first aid until an actual, proper care is given. People KNOW it exists, but who wants to have a gaping wound leaving a huge scar for the rest of their life just cause the doctors say that "there's the band aid, so your life is not in danger!"?!

It is a problem with a working workaround. But like every problem, it needs to be FIXED. Mostly every freaking game that uses instances forces party into the same instance UNLESS players switch them manually. And yes, there usually IS an option to switch instance manually from anywhere, not only on zoning-in.

Oh please, be a little less hyperbolic. You're exaggerating pretty horribly here.

I already said that it's a slight annoyance, and that's what it is. It's not a big deal at all.

Do I think they should never do anything about it? Maybe if they plan to get rid of the instances. But if they are going to be more permanent, then they should definitely let you chose when teleporting. But people act like it's the end of the world or something.

Making a thread to complain about something that is annoying and half-assed is not acting "like it's the end of the world". Stop trying to minimize people's legitimate complaints.
