What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

They most likely used the alien just to explain away the Hildi physics. I don't think it will be included in the MSQ. FFXIV has jumped many sharks. It would be nice if a scion could have a meaningfull death again. Maybe catgirl for the first? Tank-red and french boy don't seem to get any character development anymore so idk why they are still around. I also don't know why we need to flavours of Alisae. I'm kinda dissapointed Dawntrail will use the scions again. They could have just left in Eorzea and Garlemald while we go exploring with a new crew.

Jumped the Shark? Did they even see the shark as they jumped clear over it, or was it not visible from orbit?

Not to mention the fact that none of it explains why Julyan Manderville has cartoonishly OP 'powers'.

Don't worry. They know this. They "owned" us by mentioning that logical error in the quest itself. Maybe the next Manderville quest will explain that. My guess is on mutliverse time travel + mandervillians + Bowser female crown.
