Feels like pretty flimsy logic. Optimizing has existed long before MMOs existed. Cliques are a facet of society. The good players aren't abandoning the game; They're still running roulettes and dungeons and forming PF groups right with the baddies.
You used a lot of words to say that society is functioning as it always has.
Edit: If you had an actual point, it's lost in all the posturing and assumptions being made.
