By keeping drop rates low, we're forced to grind for several months, giving them time to work on the next update, and still keep our subscriptions. Yes low drop rates may cause a handful of people to emo rage quit, but that's a small fraction compared to what they'd lose if their content didn't last for months. Remember, Square Enix is a business first and your friend second, they want our money, and low drop rates for longer lasting content is how they accomplish that.
This is dumb because people will get burnt out and quit anyway. With the current drop system they'll leave with a bad impression of the game and are less likely to reactivate at the next patch.
