I doubt anyone will have a problem with Ishgard being the central hub, whether they want to head over and hang out in LL for a while or not. The problem people have right now is that of the 3 starting city-states, one is clearly the "better" choice, and that just breeds too much animosity... The fun-loving "My city is better than your city" banter isn't quite as harmless when one party is correct. When Ish is the place to go to work, and the 3 starting cities are our home, there shouldn't be any issues. The Jeuno example comes to mind... The social map can pretty much be copy and pasted off FFXI.
