So what is gonna happen when they need to introduce new worlds because existing worlds are at capacity? Do you think we're going to stay at 10 servers indefinitely, just because SE doesn't want things to turn out the way that Azurymber thought they might back in that one thread? If the game becomes popular and successful, are we all going to run around with server lag so bad because we have 50,000 ppl logged in at one time? No, MMO's add new worlds/servers all the time.

FFXIV economy will always balance out, because the ability to gain money through leves and quests are a constant, and the rest of it is based on supply and demand.

The only thing that will cause the in-game economy to spiral out of control is Gil-sellers. That is the only potential problem here, not new servers.
I explained this fairly clearly.
FFXIVs economy will -never- balance out.
Why?
Old servers currently have lets say 5000 mil
new servers have none

so day 1:
1mil goes into economy, 500k comes out

old server: 5000mil 500k
new server: 500k

a month later:
old server: 5015mil
new server: 15mil

Both servers will increase gil at the same amount on average. But theres no reason why new ones would reach the amount of gil in old ones.
