That I understand. What I don't understand is players who have such an aversion to doing things with others that they perceive the necessity of groups during certain points being detrimental to the actual game itself. An MMO implies interaction with other players. If you want to solo exp, solo quests and do everything else alone it seems pointless to me to play an MMO. In my experiences people talk about most the things they did with others. No one ever goes, "Yeah, I soloed everything and had a blast!".

All I'm saying is you seem to demonize party play and I can't imagine what someone gets out of experiencing so much content alone. You said an MMO doesn't imply constantly teaming up with others, but honestly speaking isn't that the point? The intro to the game doesn't feature the hero slaying monsters and experiencing the lore on his own.
