The problem is that with that many people the challenge turns away from beating the content to managing and keeping together that amount of people. In FFXI, which is the only game I can compare to ARR, it was manageable for things like Dynamis because content over there was absurdly easy compared to the endgame we have here. It was somewhat good as it allowed you to be more social and in runs you'd see a lot of activity in LS chat and people generally having a better time than the wipefest that becomes endgame progression in this game. It was more social and community engaging, sure, but those large raids were in no way more challenging than most trials or the current endgame raid in this game.
