I'm definitely one who would love to see a good instanced housing system implemented. I also believe that ward housing and instanced housing can co-exist without issues. Most of the pushback seems to come from those who seem to want housing to be a prestige system in a game that pretty much lacks prestige systems outside of Ultimate, and if others were able to easily get a house their own purchase wouldn't feel as special.
The separation of wards would have been perfectly fine on new world with 10 wards for FCs and then all new wards etc for personal especially with auto demolition enabled. That would have worked in the long run. But because people were getting upset that the FC wards still had small houses available, there were push backs on that. Now all those people that were complaining about all those smalls being available now have to contend with FCs dropping 30 extra tickets on their favourite large house.
