Disparities make things desirable for the haves and the have nots. When everyone has something it doesnt matter. See: blue loot. It used to mean something then it was trivialized.
and there's a big difference between basic commodities like food shelter and medical care, which should be available to all, and luxury products that people choose to expend effort towards the pursuit of. If you make those products universal, no one wants them anymore, including the people that the market just opened up to. Its why people don't spend millions of dollars on the rocks in my yard. The only reason you even think you have something worth doing, LFR, is because of your parasitic relationship towards real raiding-- but it can't last.
