Why is chocobo porting so limited?

Yes, the porter system feels unfinished and i can only imagine that its not getting much attention since its probably not utilized much. I havent used it at all since my first week in game. The teleport system pretty much kills it.

Yeah, the teleport system renders it obsolete. If teleport prices were a lot higher or you only were given an allowance on a daily basis you'd see porters being used, and a lot. At this point probably the only way to make them viable again is to reroute them to locations not accessible via crystals, like dungeon entrances, settlements and landmarks (like that tower on the complete oppsite side of the map from Dragonshead.)
