Has Square Ever Made A Mention of Adding Data Centers In The US?

Yeah, I'd be more in favor of AU/NZ getting a data center before anyone else.

Players in that part of the world are at a distinct disadvantage. But the drawback would be the relatively smaller size of the local player population (I mean relative to NA, JPN or EU), so you might see 1 or two servers, not quite a data center. For cross server DF/PF you'd need to pair with one of the existing data centers. So any content with players from beyond your server(s) you'd still have lag issues.
