It sounds like to me that instead of you putting work into making your gil you would rather take the easy way out and just buy your in game currency.
Making assumptions about other players of which you know nothing won't give any solidity to your argument.

The fact that it worked in other games (That have economies that are just as fair and actually work better than the FFXIV 1.0 economy, due to way better implemented auction and commerce systems), means that it's a sound system that has solid possibilities to be implemented just as soundly in this game.

Lazyness has nothing to do with it. My concern is hampering RMT firms and, even more importantly, helping the game to retain subs easier.

In this economy, that's not a small problem.
