Because lets face it even with 5 AI's somethings weren't going to be cleared "solo" for a lot of people. Along with there's only so many times until you start grumbling about the npcs you've done countless of things with not knowing who you were just because it was the start of a seperate storyline. I highly doubt a lot of people who join XI now or a few years ago would have enjoyed playing XI before some of the MASSIVE QoL they put into the game under the current team. Especially without the insane amount of short cuts they put into the game not being there.
