The reason it's 'in my favor' is because it makes the most sense, if any successful MMO implemented market wards, people would think it was a joke.
Playing the wards is part of the game to some people. Even more fun then fighting mind-numbing leves and pretending to be a machine crafting. AH does not = successful MMO. People use AH in MMOs because several people use them, it's an old system that some are familiar with. That FFXIV didn't conform to this doesn't mean MW is the worst thing ever. The only complaint that is reasonable valid that people are having now is that you can't buy things instantly from the search menu.
