There's definitely no chance I'd be doing this. I'd need an extra gear set for any job I want to do these raids on. The only viable solution is to enforce a change.

Even on a fresh level 50 job, the easiest gear to get is ilvl 120, which already outgears Crystal Tower by a gigantic margin.

Also, you say that the purpose is to fill queues, which is true. But what's the point of filling queues if the content is dead? Why shouldn't new players experiencing content for the first time be able to experience something that has a little more going on in it than some of the first dungeons in the game?
Except the content isn't dead as people are still running them. Or are they not running them? I don't know as I don't have it unlocked on this character.

And if people are not bothered to do it, then that's fine, it's probably too much trouble, but that's not an incentive to enforce a change that not everyone may agree too. For all the complaints, the status quo may be fine for the majority of people.
