The hunting log is the only reason they linger and why I doubt those locations will ever be instanced out. And why for Shadowbringers and a lesser extent Endwalker it was very obvious how there were no Sin Eater open world mobs or Fates, only a few A/S Ranks, and the rest in instanced events and dungeons as to avoid that ARR time bubble mistake.
Well, remember that for players still in ARR (there's a lot of those, the game's got a healthy influx of new players), they aren't rogue or former XIVth Legion soldiers, they're current XIVth Legion soldiers. I don't know what FFXIV's phasing tech is generally capable of, but to do this properly you'd have to specifically change the names of these mobs only for people who've gotten past a certain point of the content, and I'm not sure it's capable of that.
