There is no guarantee that the changes suggested here or other places would enhance the experience for everyone playing, or even the majority of players. It's also worth remembering this is an international game, and I feel it's primary audience is the Japanese base and their feedback is what the team listens to the most which may or may not align with what we see in the NA boards. All that to say that small groups of friends and people on message boards that you interact with because you share similar opinions about the game do not translate into a majority of players.
If the feedback here is so unpopular with the wider playerbase then the damn community managers need to start coming out onto these forums and telling us that

Right now we are constantly told this is where to leave feedback, we just sit here screaming into a void while nothing appears to get acted on, if square wants to maintain our trust they can at least pretend to tell us where specific feedback is coming from
