So many worlds! But I'd like to play where I can have fun with an awesome group of players, so I'd like a high-populated server. Who knows! Maybe I can learn so much from them about the game itself and sh*t. So I choose... [enter high-populated server name here].

Antisocial Player
That's a bunch of worlds! I've come in this game to play alone though, because reaching my objectives alone is what makes me a real Player. So I'll choose... [enter low-populated server name here].

In both of the cases, the new player wants to have a new FFXIV experience. It's the Player's choice to being spoiled of the things in Eorzea or walking its way to discover them by itself.

So, I can't see a point to have servers for new players only. It just segregates players in those servers without the option to have fun in high-populated servers. It defeats a purpose to have a big community of players that play with each other.
Not to nitpick, but other reasons players would choose a low populated server would be easier access to content (no fields of people slaying marmots) closer knit community, and recognition potential(we're the first blah blah blah, or the best whathaveyou on our server!)
