None taken, and I think you're ignoring that most of what I mentioned is either DT content or "evergreen" content (such as leveling various jobs). I guess I also could have mentioned doing things like Hunt trains (in DT content), the weekly Raid 4 for the weapon drop (DT content), and a weekly Jeuno (ditto). I get in a fair amount of playtime; it's just mostly "repeatable" stuff rather than "progressing" stuff. Catwho also brought up a great point - the prime demographic for MMO's isn't teenagers, college kids, and young adults like it used to be. It's still those same human beings, but now we have families, full-time careers, and so on.

As I like to say, I look back fondly on the days of shouting for /lfg in XR to put together a WC run in WoW (which itself could take a couple hours just to run the dungeon)...I also couldn't imagine even trying to do something like that today, let alone thinking it a fun use of my time. MMO's today are primarily geared toward people who only have limited playtime compared to the past, so I'd say I'm consuming the FFXIV content at the "intended" rate, and the "issue" occurs when people blaze through it faster than it's humanly possible to create, then complain there's nothing else to do.
