To borrow your quote and to mention an important point where this thinking is a myth so far for FF14 ...

How many of you have gotten tens, maybe even hundreds, the steel key from Nathalan's wolf camp, and still never got the mask? I have one of those mask, on my 2nd try.

One major factor you guys are forgetting, is the RNG SE had in place for 1.0, and that totally nullifies the "play time" factor you guys are claiming to be so important. Ever tried to get an Iffy weapon, and after 10+ tries, a noob comes into your party and gets one on their first win? Again, the RNG totally nullifies how much time you have put into this.

Pop window, combined with the RNG that existed in 1.0, really doesn't equate to more time = better equipment.

As is, the loot system is unfair, and hopefully with the changes coming, we will see a more well balanced loot system in term of giving out the rewards.
