It's not even their intention to force players to compete for a house of their own, they just haven't gotten around to upgrading the servers in order to handle the unexpected success of FFXIV.
It also spawns a toxic community with players placing themselves on a pedestal for being one of the lucky few to be able to log on at a specific time to purchase a house and then ramble about it being 'tough luck' that people with real life commitments at the time couldn't attempt the same thing.
There's no 'achievement' in logging on at a specific time and date.
You would have haaaaated the fishing weeklies in WoW, then.
Your monthly fee doesn't entitle you to everything. It's unfortunate, but someone's gotta say it. If you want a house, you've got to want it more than the people who ARE logging out in front of the zoneline and waking up at 3:30am and spamming refresh on the log-in screen. Otherwise, you're waiting until the demand has died down.
And we all agree it sucks.
