It used to be the case that many side activities in the game, e.g., crafting and even relics. hoarding would provide an end-game substantive enough where it is all you could do and engage with and would be eating really good, even if you didn't want to touch raiding.

It's perfectly easy to imagine someone having played for well over 10 years without, for example, doing a single savage on patch, or without doing a single ultimate, if you have played the game long enough and seen the history of the game, or if you have engaged with enough of the game generally speaking.

I mean sure, it's great they found something they are enjoying and I know people as you describe but not one of them ever said, "FF14 devs / yoshi-p should cater JUST to my needs or focus on that because it's what I like best or because I am the majority"

Also, there is a difference between I do this content because I enjoy it and I do it because it's stress-free. If you avoid something because it's too "stressful" you are clearly living in fear. Also, how can one determine they will not enjoy doing something if they never tried it at least a few times or for a while?
