Right now with SIGMASCAPE uncapped most of endgame player are focusing on logs/books runs and it definitely disappoints being forced spend one hour to get a scale
Rathalos farming is meant to be fun, but you also don't get to fight him till you reach High Rank. So that's why the content is meant to be a bit more challenging than a Great Jagras fight. They picked a monster meant to be a bit more difficult. If they wanted to, they could've gone with Nergigante out of the gate. But it's a balanced fight with both being somewhat difficult, and also a thinking game with some easily notice-able moves.
