I really don’t get why they don’t make all of them MSQ needed.
They all give lore for the world (Ivalice), pick up old stories (Mhachi) or are even a kind of continuation of the MSQ (the twelve). Nier is the only one I have doubts but even that gives us dwarf lore.

The writers would have also a much easier time not having to dance around them being done or not.

They aren’t even hard and at some point a game can expect people to actually play the game if they want to experience the story.

The entire alliance roulette problems would be solved with that more or less.
