System to Automatically Relinquish Personal Housing?

[BreathlessTao]

It probably just clashes with FF14's identity as a "casual" mmo.. I would assume Japanese attitudes had more to do with it than what NA/EU people did..

I could have accepted that as reasoning, the game wanting to be casual I mean, back at launch. And for a little while after that. With all the insane grinding and (double/triple) RNG gated content that's in it now though, if ever actually given as an answer, it would be laughable at best - as probably you yourself feel it too, judging by the quotation marks you put the word itself in.
