Maybe it's time for a casual "strike" if not complete departure.

You don't mean 'casual' you mean 'bad'. Casual is not just a nice euphemism for bad. It's your choice not to engage with the game at a level that requires skill. Casual players can clear chaotic. There's no lockout, very low gear requirement, anyone can do it on their schedule if they have the skill to do so. Bad players can not.

Or some people simply don’t want to spend hours or days on a single fight? Either because they don’t have that amount of time weekly due to irl life (like me for example) or simply don’t find it fun, since when video games are supposed to be a chore instead of relaxing fun?

Then you really have chosen the wrong genre of video game.

More people need to understand this. None of the mechanics of CAR are hard, they're firmly around ex trial level. The only thing making it savage level are a critical mass of people who are afraid that if they learn how to play the game they can no longer call themselves casual players anymore.

I mean any given player (provided they are not bound by extrinsic factors like visual impairment, I suppose they can but with a much greater deal of frustration involved), can clear content in this game. This is not a game of skill. It's a game of dance and learning a pre-programmed script. 'Bad' players can clear anything in this game if they decide to put their mind to it.
