It's all interconnected.
You could even say the rate at which a certain fish is caught is related to the Gear Bind System.
It's just part of one big wheel of control, that hopefully keeps the economy balanced and continually flowing. The Dev team has a huge responsibility to manage.
New Worlds -> Brand new economy no existing players can join
Old Worlds -> New and old players can join (New players 0gil -> existing players, some having Max Gil)
So if gear binding on SB is just a small part of this system, to make sure everyone has a good experience, then it's a good thing, no?
Is it safe to assume that the people that are so concerned about the value of their gear, will be the first in line to purchase some player housing? Who will be the first to drop a couple Mil for a Plush Moogle Lamp for beside their bed?

I do have concerns about gear sharing, reducing the feeling of community in these FF titles. But if the changes to the system increases the variety of items on the market, then buying the mats for a quick synth wont be a huge issue.
I enjoy helping out newcommers and friends, so as long as that's not effected....
I'm 99% certain they added this because of you Rein. We can't handle anymore of your Used, Melded Subligar in circulation anymore.
I'm with you on this one. I'd bet most people wouldn't have even noticed had this info not come to light.
