And yet what data center came up with the largest population in the latest Lucky census?

Crystal.

If all people care about is raiding then yes they're going to consider Crystal dead. It's very lively in other aspects of the game, though. The game world doesn't revolve around raiding nor does the data center revolve around Balmung.

Again, Crystal is doing just fine.
