You said a lot of things that I am thinking tbh. When it comes to this question, sadly the answer is definitely not anything to do with the game. When i ask why I log in, it's not because the story, or the dungeons, or the raids, or crafting, or FATEs, or housing, or any of that. I'm fairly disappointed with most of it, actually. If I left it there, I would log out. However, the answer to that question for me is "Friends". I have quite a few friends on here that I would be very sad to permanently say goodbye too. I've actually tried to encourage them to play other games with me, but they're pretty content here it seems. So, I log on to play with them.
