    You definitely only get two.

    Specific text referenced: Your FINAL FANTASY XIV subscription allows you to hire up to two retainers per character without paying any additional fees.

    Pay to win is any system where a player can purchase something that is not cosmetic in nature in order to gain an advantage. I would classify the retainer system being that. You're paying for an extra farming chance and storage space (i.e. the advantage) which sub-only/non spending players could not have without buying said extra retainer. By giving the ability to buy more retainers, they're selling additional access to two game features (more retainers for more farming + more storage space) which removes the possibility of it being a cosmetic only purchase.
