Your character is unaffected in any way that should matter to you. What some stranger sees on their screen, likely thousands of miles away from you, shouldn't be your concern or your business.

Your character in generic job appropriate gear is still your character as much as your character in fuzzy 64 bit low textures. How do you feel about people silencing bard performances? People's carefully crafted songs, silenced. Why? Cause some people find it obnoxious.

Why does your preference top someone elses on their computer? What about their lore? Should they not have the option to enjoy the game as they wish with no noticeable effect on your side?

I don't think people realise how many good immersive outfits they'd be losing alongside the few bad ones.
A lot of people would rather see someone in patchwork armor than in a rudolph horns and nose with a bikini top and chocobo pants. That being said I think the best solution would be to have someone appear in their current highest available tier of AF.
