You want content that doesn't require any effort whatsoever, is "engaging", requires no time commitment, no study, and has good rewards.

Whatever it is you crazy people want isnt real!

I'm also so sick of hearing "This is game!" Or I play to "relax and have fun!" Video games and MMO's in general are built around challenging the player. You don't boot up a Mario game and expect to be taken to the last level because you can't make the jumps in level one.

If you want a relaxed social sim with no gameplay, no effort and to have fun well second life and stardew Valley are right there.

MMO's thrive on high end content its how the genre works
Extreme primals fit that bill pretty well, as did other content such CLL, Dalriada, Delubrum, all of which were approachable and offered significant replay value, between common sense decisions like allowing Bozja to serve as a levelling experience and having a fairly well designed relic on-expansion. Much of the other content is bogged down by poor implementation e.g., developers and producers with decades of experience still trying to figure out how cross-team collaboration works. None of the requests here are really that difficult, so I am not sure how you're deriving insanity from it unless you're being intentionally obtuse.

A game with a population cratering to 2017-levels, in addition to stakeholder meetings with concerns around declining population and declining quality would suggest that this game isn't really all that thriving, to be honest.
