Contrast this with ARR and HW. You can go do everything for ARR and HW relics now, and only experience normal DF queues for any steps requiring group content. Alliance Raid Roulette was a big want on these forums and elsewhere for a long time because people were waiting and waiting and waiting in queue and now we can do them quickly and simply. So quickly and simply that they didn't even hesitate to add a set to mandatory MSQ. I think similar treatment toward at least these instances (and anything they could possibly do to help with Eureka) would go a long way toward effective future-proofing.
It happened in the same patch. I was one of those unlucky folks who had to wait for weeks to be able to get Castrum done because I was busy with real-life when it dropped. Couldn't believe myself when I've done castrum after countless failed runs, and I totally agree with your other points!
