I'm not sure what to make of Yoshi-P and his team's handling of the housing system in FFXIV.

On the one hand, it seems to say housing for all and that it is a social place... LOL... It's often nothing more than a ghost town.

And on the other hand, the players who complain that there is not enough housing for everyone.

They seem to let it go and even excuse certain behaviour which consists in buying all the houses of an entire instance, for Rp or community reasons, or whatever...

All I can think of is that it helps SE to keep a certain number of subscribers at least every 45 days max.

There was no particular announcement on the management of housing concerns, there will be new zones with Endwalker, but everything will be sold within 15 minutes. And this by people who may have prepared a lot of FC to buy a lot of FC's house.
