Odds are only a few have access to things like decoration, gardening, and the workshop, and those rewards may or may not get shared around. FCs have the potential to offer housing to far more people, but in practice it isn't necessarily the case that they actually do.

Sure members can get their own room to personalize, but that's dependent on their staying in the guild (and not leaving or getting kicked), the FC continuing to exist and/or own the house. Personally I haven't bought an FC room in years because my ability to keep it isn't as much in my control and my own personal house is. That and, I think they changed this, but there was a time when houses couldn't be relocated while a member owned a room - which resulted in me being kicked out of my FC while offline so they could move to a larger house.

And on the flip side, every personal house can have tenants - I myself have two, and I'd love to be able to allow more. Me and my friends share housing resources all the time across our houses, especially the gardens.

This isn't a black/white us vs them issue.
Thanks for pointing out how inferior personal housing is compared to FC housing. If players chose to stay in FCs where their aspirations are being kept in check, that's on them.
