Already gave multiple points.

When they give reasons why, the people who are for gear swapping disprove those reasons with well stated arguements,
Like calling the people who didn't like it in FFXI unskilled? Maybe you should re-read your own posts.

yet people still don't think it is a good idea based on pretty much no logical reasoning at all. It's like arguing with a sixteen year old girl who thinks she knows everything, yet she bases her decisions on nothing knowledgable at all.
The irony here is tangible.

"Too much elitism is no good" - I'm sure that's what SE said when they were making this game.
They were. They also failed, so they booted Tanaka and brought in someone who also has that same vision of not producing an atmosphere that promotes elitism.

-"Hey guys, we need to make sure only mediocre players play this game."
Nobody has ever said that. That's something you just pulled out of your butt right now. How about making some logical points?

There honestly is no point continuing this because people will still sa the same thing:
"Don't bring back gear swaps because they are bad", and they still won't have any good reasoning behind that choice.
They are bad and you were give multiple objective reasons. You threw them all out in favor of whatever personal biases you had for gear swapping, like "if you were even remotely decent in XI, gear swapping shouldn't have been a problem for you."
