Therefore, early access isn't free, it is and was offered as part of the $30 to $60 spent to purchase the expansion in the first place.

The amount SE should offer as compensation, that's harder to put a figure on, if they offer any at all. Presuming they did provide players some compensation, say free game time or a refund of $1 to $15, there will always be someone who thinks it's too fair or unfair.

Now depending on the Jurisdiction, the offer of early access could be considered a form of contract under consumer protection laws, and would then make the current log in issues a breach of said contract on the part of Square Enix.
Nice fallacy. The cost of the expansion does not drop after the early access period ends, so no, nobody is actually paying extra for it.

I love how many people are demanding compensation for what amounts to a dollar. Maybe as high as $2.16 if you have the maximum possible subscription like I do. And yet, I'm not complaining because this isn't anything new. This is your standard expansion launch.
