Because they are fundamentally different games in different genres. Chances are there will be very little cross over between their respective ideas. Companies have long tried to shoehorn in mechanics or ideas from other games only for it to fail miserably. In fact, we needs not only any further than FFXIV itself. Eureka is essentially the developers trying to recreate an old school grind MMO that has long since died out. The result? Widely polarizing opinions at best; outright negativity otherwise. You can't take something from another game and make it fit.

For argument's sake though, let's say they did implement a radical change like this. You can now obtain the best gear from raids, trials, dungeons and even on the cash shop. So why does anyone bother clearing Savage more than once or twice? Better even, why touch anything except the easier content? There's no longer any incentive for bother. Worse even is how do the devs incentive any content now? Savage takes weeks of clearing to obtain gear, but this change makes it so you could be bis within a month; less if we hearken back to your earlier demand you shouldn't have to farm; that the rewards are given out in full upon clearing. Now you have seven months with nothing since the developers can't develop things fast enough to keep up.

Simply put, if you want the best gear, go earn it like the rest of us. Don't demand it be made available in easier content because you dislike Savage.
