Also lets not talk to much about new players when they are already being turned off by the difficulty lol. Fix 1 thing at a time.
Players' reaction to the difficulty of the game =/= giving everyone a "Skip to 50 Free" card.

I have no problem with a level sync system, as long as its more carefully planned out and implemented, so it can't be abused the way it was in XI. The ability to sync down 50+ levels and ding 75 in a level 30 area effectively killed any high level groups in that game as well. If it's implemented in such a way that the ostensible purpose of it - friends and family able to group together without concern of level difference - but that can't be abused as a PL'ing system (the one currently in XIV due to the xp chain system is quite enough I think, considering how quickly people are packing on levels with it) - would be fine, in my opinion.
