How is anyone fine with the 4-month patch delivery schedule?

...and yet the upcoming mini patch is adding custom deliveries and beast tribe quests. The former of which is a weekly task and the latter of which is a daily task.

I'm by no means a fan of the direction WoW has since gone in, though it didn't always lean heavily on busywork and it has at least consistently kept an open world intact in order to encourage exploration.

Which is only one facet of the updates this game gets over the course of each patch. WoW literally only gives you that one patch of content and does nothing for 12 months.

FF14 is an MMO. One time quests or content is fine but it just adds nothing to the mid/long term experience most MMO players are looking for. I wouldn't mind if the game was F2P, really. But with this horrible housing system, that forces you to keep paying, it'd be nice to have something to do on top of it, not just afk for 3.5 months waiting for the next content ( which will be really cool, I can't wait for 6.2 with new raid, relic weapon, criterion and new trial serie).
I don't understand, for example, why we can't start working on relic weapon in x.1 patches. Or you know, allow us to farm the new alliance raid to gear our other jobs. The 590 gear lock is just absurd when we're all aiming for ilvl 600.
It would, for sure, keep many of us busy while waiting.
