And if you have the misfortune to have multiple groups farming the area, as soon as half of them leave you're left with fates that will take twice or thrice more time to finish until the area adjusts the new ones accordingly.

Honestly, I haven't noticed that at all. We're talking about overworld FATEs here, so the more people there are, the quicker they will generally get done in my experience. In OC yes, of course they sync, but you can also re-sync them by letting the mobs reset and pulling again. You're not forced to fight the more difficult version.
