    "What do you mean there's crafted versions of Coil gear? That totally invalidates the struggle of getting the REAL gear from the fights!"
    "People shouldn't be able to get titles or drops from unsynced content because they didn't actually earn it like we did."
    "Buying the moogle costume off the mogstation completely makes purchasing it from FanFest pointless!"

    How many people actually care if something they earned in the past becomes easier to obtain or available from another means? It doesn't invalidate the effort you spent to get it initially and it certainly doesn't take it away from you. Some of the arguments against this idea are so riddled with emotion and strawmanning it's hilarious.

    Hell this situation happened in XI when Abyssea was added as content and the ability to level to cap was made far faster/easier. Cue the outcry of "real" players saying nah nah you didn't earn those levels like we did (also like when PotD was added in here). Honestly they should also re-release the digital bonuses that came with real life purchases, I know I won't get cranky if someone has the postmoogle even though they didn't "earn" it by spending money on the plush.
