A prepatch event leading up to the actual major patch is much smarter than a patch event that does not start until the patch is released.

Making it concurrent (which is what you indicate you meant here) with the patch release does not make it "long-term content". It actually interferes with the patch content itself.
Opinions.
Yours is not better than mine though.

What's vague about?
Overall, moogle tomes; old content, turns out to be better long term content than island sanctuary, variant dungeon, and the snorefest raids. They should start every patch with moogle tomes from the beginning.
Or is it that you got caught? Trying wiggle yourself out of your nonsense claim isn't helping you here.

FFXIV used to release the bulk of its patch content initially, at the start of the patch cycle (ARR and HW); widely considered the best expansions of the game so far; with SB in the discussion as well. So whether releasing it all at the beginning or not actually enhances my side of that opinion compared to yours.

Adding it at the start or near the start of patches ensures that people have something to do after the 30 minute-2 hour msq, while making them return to variant/deep dungeon and/or relics at the end of patch cycle. Not my fault they decided to make relics a 30 minute affair this in endwalker.
