You see your pros have a solid failed point.... NO ONE DOES FATES OR OPEN WORLD CONTENT TO LEVEL ANYMORE. Everyone use instance content to level and not even dungeons. They use deep dungeon and HoH which most new players won't know about.
It won't really affect gear sales because you level extremely fast and once you get to 50 you mainly can get away with tome gear, but guess what, gear doesn't matter in deep dungeon.
