I like bozja, I greatly dislike Stormblood (and everything associated with it), I don't want to spend hours grinding the godawful Return to Ivalice raid series, nor do I want to spend dozens of hours in Stormblood zones grinding FATEs to try and hit a drop that has an estimated 10% drop rate, because the dev team desperately wants people to do Alliance Raids, because they refuse to admit that the design for them isn't a good fit for everyone, and that people should have a right to do the content they like, and not be punished for wanting to do the actual new content.
The middle step is the only one that has no Bozja option, and you only need to do that step once; after your first weapon you can skip that middle step. Being able to do 2 out of 3 steps in Bozja isn't the end of the world.
Remember, those of us who hated Eureka had to go through Bozja before we could do relics outside of Bozja, so we're literally in the same situation of having to do Bozja or Raids once.
