It’s just there to have you subscribed longer because no matter what you say people WANT the tomestone gear even if they don’t do the harder content amd the devs WANT you to be subscribed as long as possible.
The normal playerbase gears up slowly without stress but they absolutely do gear up without spending ingame money for crafted gear.
It’s the same as the system in gacha games, just there keep you from completing everything too fast.

Money is the answer.
Incorrect again.

While any company requires money to function (wow, big surprise) if money was their sole motivator Yoshi-P would never say it's acceptable to take breaks.
What SE is doing is not motivated primarily by money, but SE likes to self-impose as your "parent" and tell you how much you can or cannot play so you don't burn out. It's a practice that SE should drop since their player base is spinning around 30 y.o on average.

As for crying that SE held you, hostage, against your will, it's the equivalent of stubbing your toe and then blaming the furniture for being in your way..
