I'm not sure that's interpretable for the purpose of this discussion O.o. All it says is that 19.3% of NA poll voters felt there was a "Lack of party-based battle tactics" which doesn't directly imply they want grind parties.

It can imply they want other things to do with a group besides leves and grinding (and as a result we got dungeons).

Not trying to be snooty or anything just pointing that out =/.
