Other Grand Company Ranks when?

It's part of the log jam. They want new gc content associated with those ranks but they hardly ever get time to work on it because of all the other stuff they give a higher priority. So there's no time frame for implementation, just somewhere on the to do list.

This exactly. From their point of view it's not as simple as letting you have another rank. That rank has to mean something. If you are to be a captain you must have a squadron to command. So if you are a commander I am going to guess you need to command multiple squadrons.

The squadron system was designed without AI on purpose because you are supposed to "command" them and tell them what to do.

Trusts have AI because you don't command them. They are your friends with their own personality and decision-making.

That's the reason we were provided for why squadrons worked so differently.

with the work put into the trust system, i don't think the squadron system will be receiving anymore updates.

hmmmmm. fair points. but it seems reasonable that, after the present level, the Trust System could take over. Then they wont need to work on two systems. Maybe individual members have to be ranked up.

For multiple squadrons, well that's a way to reuse Alliance Raids with some added content.
Additionally or alternatively, it could be a direction for Variant Dungeons to merge with, featuring more iconic GC members as you rank up.
