A couple of things.

I am active within various "communities" for FFXIV as well, and see many various opinions and feedback; even on some of the most positive groups, there's admission that things have been releasing, lately, in a less-than-perfect state. Even Yoshi-P has provided a statement admitting as much.
In your flailing around to defend yourself on an online forum of EW "doomsayers," at the very least, you could keep track of what the developers are saying. Your "perspective" isn't as infallibly broad as you think it is.

Why not be honest? That implies there's lies (tells me where you head is).
When someone uses the word "honest," this does include that they would rather the subject not be lying, yes. However, for someone to be honest, they must also be forthcoming with the truth; particularly, if they want consideration or action from other people. For YoshiP to warn us not to let our expectations get too high, but not follow up with what exactly the Island Sanctuary is, unfortunately leaves room for questioning and scrutiny. If he had just been honest about what the Island Sanctuary truly is and simply give us some basic, concrete(-but-subject-to-change) information as to what has been decided, he wouldn't need to worry about expectations going overboard.
