I also think it's kind of testing the waters. You don't roll into an insanely rich neighborhood and open up a greasy-spoon diner, and you also don't go into government housing sections and debut a five-start French restaurant. There's a community here, sure, and with that comes a sense of scale on what the people in the community like and dislike. It's not policing because it isn't done with intent, but it does provide a lay of the land.
There are also people on Balmung RPing as named, lore-based characters, half-primals, characters from other games, and as the Warrior of Light themselves. You'll find people willing to indulge any concept, really, but this website isn't indicative of the entire server, just of the people on the website. There's some of us who play to the 11th degree of power and some happy to not do so. There's a diverse range of responses in here varying from "Sure, do it" to "No, and no one ever should" and that's to be expected when someone asks for a public opinion on, well, anything.
