Bingo. On top of the onboarding issues and budget issues already raised in this topic, there's the simple issue of just finding good new staff in the first place. SE could bump the budget by millions tomorrow and someone could invent an instant training capsule so that onboarding wasn't a thing but that still wouldn't mean that capable, quality new staff will instantly appear out of nowhere. I agree that the team for FF14 absolutely should be given more resources, but in terms of money and people, but it's nowhere near as simple as just "hire more people dummy."
