Instanced housing allows for none of those things. If instanced housing is added, they should just limit it to a mog house and not even bother going all-out. I mean, it's a waste of time if it is not done with a larger purpose in mind.
Non-instanced housing is highly unlikely and improbable in terms of FFXIV's graphics and needed power to run the game. It would take up way too many resources to have a custom house for EVERY player, especially if it was within city walls... It would create an immense amount of lag and clutter. It's just impractical.

Instanced housing would be a lot like Mog Houses in XI... You can invite your friends on to your instance to see your garden, your house, etc. without slowing down the entire server. It just seems like the route to take.

I have no problem with instanced housing as long as I can invite others to my instance.
