Pretty much this.

The people that join will greatly outweigh the people that leave.

They already gave out FF14 base game free to a lot of people with twitch prime. Its still free up until May, so a lot of time to keep drawing in more and more people.

That being said, the new race will definitely entice new people into joining and sticking around.
