Sometime the content that appears to be the least related to the game may end up having the most relative lore for the game.

Until we get the full Raid storyline in 5.5, we won't really know the importance of Nier Raid to the FF14 world.

For all we know it could provide the lore on how the Shards work and develop due to their separation from Source in a more detailed way or maybe something else that we cannot predict yet.
