It doesn't directly effect us. The OP made the point that it confuses new players. If new players start, get confused, and are bored by their beginning sequence, they won't like the game and will end up leaving. It's not really immersive to stand around and throw rocks for 1 damage per rock thrown while you wait for the overpowered NPC to one-shot the mob (which sometimes takes forever for them to kick in.)

Problem is it could potentially reduce the player-base in the long-run. Yes, the player-base is fudged already but I think this is more talking about post-overhaul updates/PS3 release. Nothing wrong with making it so if they want to be a crafter, they have to go to the crafting guild.
