On why they don't do that now maybe (pure speculation) it has to do with the expansion preparation to prevent situations like happened in Ragnarok on last expansion there were so many players that could not progress on instanced quests story line so you have a notion you had waiting lines with 600-1000 characters/players to make those quests, on the 1st day.
They are also very obviously pressed for time, simple as that. Crystarium was barely ready in time for Tokyo, Eulmore was barely ready, the Eden art was barely ready with Nomura not even having boss designs finalized, the Hrothgar models were barely ready, etc. Even in western countries, which don't have the insane work culture that Japan does, this is the crunch period where developers spend days or weeks at a time without leaving the office and often barely sleeping. Attempting to expand what they already have on their plate at this point screws up the entire workflow.
