For those that don't want to do that, the ability to have things be "easy" or whatever is there as well. Everyone can be happy that way, I feel, unless people feel that one option or the other shouldn't exist at all so that everyone can play in one way, which isn't something that I personally endorse.
Coil nerfs, Pharos Nerf, and Steps Nerf are all a Thing, though. The original difficulty of these things were removed because (at least partially) people were unable to do them as they were designed. They were possible, barring Twister bug, and in the case of Pharos and Coil they were already completely optional. I will concede that steps threw a bunch of mechanics into Trial Roulette that most people weren't prepared for, but the original versions are gone.
I'm articulating it badly, as I'm not trying to say "Everyone must play the way I deem it!" I just miss when challenge was met with determination and not surrender. I blame FFXI.
Edit: I consider it a personal failing of my own, hence my claiming position as a grognard earlier.
