I truly think the only problem with catering to "hardcore" players is because the general bunch of them dislike casuals or anyone "not worthy" obtaining gear or completing goals.

In a way they're never going to be sated because they will burn through the content faster than the dev team can code it.

Imagine ffxiv is a food, the hardcore wolf it down and demand more before realizing they are full or enjoying the taste, the casual eat it slower and are satisfied with the mealonce they've finished (or get leftovers for tommorrow.)
