SE has been at war with RMT for years, why would they want to introduce anything that could help them? Or to turn their own player base into (reverse) RMT? That would be pretty hypocritical.

Also, what do you do when your subscription runs out, and there is no scroll on AH to buy? I don't think there will be enough people willing to pay RL money for gil to keep up with the people who would rather just pay gil for their subscription.

They could always make the pass bought in game from an NPC for a crazy ammount of gil, so they could set the price... but gil doesn't pay the bills.

And finally, as we've seen time and time again: people will always find a way to exploit. So I think it's best if we just leave it alone.
Seems to me you don't understand how the system works. We can often extrapolate outcomes when we understand something. If we lack comprehension of the system, our extrapolation is then well.... I can think of one exploit I have seen. People over pricing the scroll.
