Then it doesn't do anything to gil sellers. The MB is already a common way for them to transfer gil. Becoming the exclusive way wouldn't matter to them.

Nothing would scream RMT. It would only scream gil transfer through the MB, but that's already the most common way for players to transfer gil to their alts, and would immediately become the way people transfer gil to friends as well. So long as transferring gil through the market board is possible (i.e. so long as the market board exists) people will continue to trade gil with each other for both legitimate and illegitimate reasons, and nothing will have been accomplished except to make it a little more of a hassle. Players care about hassle. Bots don't.
