So how many people advocating for personal housing really would do something more with it than just the bare minimum?
Can only speak for myself, but I'd decorate my house to the nines if I could. I have a medium, but it's too small and too limited for me to either take full advantage of the space or set up the rooms the way I want without some INCREDIBLY frustrating glitching and hours of microadjustments to get the walls and lofts exactly the way I want them. That's a side grievance with decorating in this game though :P

Even with relocate privileges it's gonna take something close to a miracle for me to snag a large if, say, Ishgard housing gets added. I care a heck of a lot more about my own decorating than I do about having neighbors that I'll almost never see and likely never talk to.
