They'll tell everyone their ideas are special and should be accepted, but they're not there to actually RP with them after everyone else says "You're lore-breaking, don't talk to me."
That presumes the community respects the lore at large in the first place. I don't believe that's the case in FFXIV, though the RPC with its couple-dozen or so die-hard adherents and its prominence can and does give the position a lot of visibility.
What I've found to be the case instead is that the RPC believes one thing, and the players in-game another.
Because of that, I tell people to RP whatever they want.
