After the cutscene from the live letter, I feel like those vocal raiders were just lying to everyone's face and being elitist.

I doubt it. This argument surfaced during the era of Second Coil - which everything was side-storyish. It was this off-to-the-side kind of content with some extra optional lore. Of course, at the time, Final Coil didn't exist; meaning that the cutscene at the end of the Truth of Flames wasn't actually known. Everything in First and Second Coil were technically just side stories. It peaks up in Final Coil.

And please don't use that term so casually like that. The term can go both ways, and you're just drawing unnecessary attention to yourself as if you want to pick a fight.

I remember when I was told...

...that BRD needed to spec in PIETY for longer, stronger songs.
