Two Simple Changes to Make the Goblet More Desirable

You're not wrong, but you're also not being helpful. I think you know that though. :P

I think it would be nice to be able to have the appearances of other housing types in different housing areas. I love my house in the LB, but maybe it could look better with one of the Oasis or Riviera themed house exteriors. At this point, there isn't really any harm to lifting the restriction. If you have a down side in mind, I'm all ears. Only one I can really think of is just that it is a bit of a waste of time. The devs have a dozen other things to worry about.

I agree with both suggestions you have made.
As someone living in the goblet, I would like to see even a total revamp.

1) Give it unique resources like Mist and LB:
It has succulents and cacti but there are reused ponds from LB there that really doesn't fit into it.

2) Make it less empty:
There are so many empty spaces that could benefit from a little more decoration.
The paths leading off to the locked off mountain area... has nothing in it.
The spaced out shop area.. not too decorated.
For being Ul'dah, it seems very bland and almost poor in a sense, nothing rich about it.

Optional and my opinion, expanding onto your grass suggestion:
3) Rework it into an Oasis (Revamp it)
Make it lusher, add palm trees and replace the LB ponds with something unique to the district.
Maybe tiled pools like the new water area. (Which I feel looks out of place compared to the rest of the district)
Heck, add brightly coloured flowers and bushes.
Add more and nicer decorations and move the shops closer together. (In LB and mist you don't have to run down stairs or jump from them)

Tldr; Goblet feels half as done as the other housing districts, please add unique plants and decoration to it with a lusher, oasis type look.
Get rid of the empty feeling.
