I don't think it's realistic for them to build a new MMO considering SE isn't even giving the existing team more resources.
They didn't build FFXIV 2.0 on 1.0's engine. They built a brand new engine to make 2.0. So any perceived limitations to the game based on it's framework is solely on Yoshi's dev team.
