Ninja edit: I may have confused you as the OP says 200 hours for 1 weapon. The post you quoted however was simply a statement of at what point in the chase for all weapons one starts being bored with the overall process.
The point is, If you want SEVEN OF THE STRONGEST WEAPONS IN THE GAME, that *should* take some work. That's how MMOs work. Heck, even in a regular final fantasy some rarer drops take some work.

I don't recall maximizing KotR Materia in 10 minutes or defeating the Deep Dungeon without grinding my team for a while.

Of course, there's a fine line between ridiculously low drop rates and ridiculously high. You're proposing the latter to fix the former.

How much hours I've spent on Ifrit (and, to be honest, I haven't fought him that much) is irrelevant. If you make totem drops too common, any player can realistically get a weapon of their choice in 3-4 runs.

With a 100% drop, it's a weapon every two runs. That's easier than getting plundered set items from Shopshae.
