You probably didn't see or read this kind of players who claims they are purposely greedy and unfair when they purchase slots and sometimes go as far as to sell for them on reddit for real money (or just sell ten times the price a little house on the PF)...
Or you don't want to see them.
The timer is just a lesser evil quick fix from SE.
And to see that when Wildstar showed how they can do so much more and for everyone is somehow heartbreaking.When I go on hiatus from the game, it is mainly because when I'm done with the tomes farm until the next expac, there's nothing nice to do with housing (too rigid, too little) and levelling is fast boring.
