I really hate these kind of arguments. Its old content, of course its easy to clear because its no longer relevant.
The problems are:

1. It's not EASY it's brain dead. Easy is one thing. It can be easy while still requiring some sort of engagement from the player.

2. It IS relevant whenever the game gives you relevant rewards for taking part in it (E.g. signficant XP, materia, currency for currently relevant gear, etc). You can't make running old content relevant for progression and on the flip side give rewards that are relevant now.

It's like paying someone $100 for winning a race with 3rd graders. If you're going to give relevant rewards, then make the content relevant. If you're not going to make the content relevant, then don't make the rewards relevant. I get that it's meant to fill the roulettes and make sure that people at lower levels can find groups, but at least try to rebalance the sync to make it relevant. People at-level aren't learning anything being carried through the dungeon by overpowered, synced players.
