The problem is, I think Square can still play the 'it's your system/connection' card. For example, my wireless in Doncaster UK is significantly more useful than my wireless in Leeds for FFXIV. It takes up to twenty seconds for NPCs to load in the latter location.

I'm not defending the netcode - I know there's an issue - but, until everybody has an extreme problem like yourself, I don't expect SE to strip the game down to fix it.
In Leeds myself, in my opinion, EU servers would fix the problem. However, (this is purely just for me and my FC, I understand its different for every person) it makes it just a little more challenging, if your reactions are there, its not a problem.
