GW2 runs on a different engine and GW2 offers a free jump to lvl 80 if you own HoT. FF14 is actually one of the few MMOs which don't offer such a service in the west at this point.

We don't know if FF14's engine is really flexible enough to separate the MSQ and maintain its quest flagging and phasing. Do remember things change an unlock as you progress. Let's just say that in SB we get sent to the Rising Stones. Would that mean starting there would unlock it? What would that mean for the flagging process during the 2.X MSQ that leads to it unlocking?

I don't think its a simple as 'just dividing it into discreet chunks'.
