Do you think it really would have taken that many hours to revise the apartment system to house FCs and to allow players to choose size of interior when purchasing an apartment?

Don't forget housing interiors themselves are already instanced. If it works inside of a house, there's no reason why it can't work inside of an apartment. Not every player is trying to access intercross gardening or cares about outdoor furnishings since we're already so limited in that aspect. What they want is more room and higher item limits in interiors.
