Except that it won't be, unless it links the wards. Think about it, who's going to want to be the first to go set up shop in a new market, when the existing market is still in another city? What would be the point? Unless everyone moves, you'd just have to go back, anyway. Even now, with many people branching out to Grid because their leves are better for SP, the MW in Grid is still struggling. Why? Because not enough people are setting up shop there for it to work, so people are giving up and going back to ole reliable.

Basically, unless enough people move to Ishgard for it to be self-sustaining (kinda doubtful), Uldah will continue to be the only market in this game. Even if enough people do move over, after a few months, we'll be having this same discussion, only replacing "Uldah" with "Ishgard."
