Maybe someone can enlighten or correct me on this, but from my understanding, interior housing, inn rooms and apartments also take up space in the instance servers for the entire data center. So while other servers don't exactly need it, I think overall its a plus to clear up whatever amount of space AFKers use up in that regard. (Sometimes I can't  even enter my own FC house to access merchants or melders)
No, that's pretty much correct. It could be the case that SE has different pools of instance servers for things, like keeping housing instances per world and then sharing dungeon/raid/trial instances, but I'm not sure if there'd really be a benefit to splitting them up. Then again, thye very well could be doing it this way which would explain why they have to add more housing even to unpopulated servers to make room for the larger servers.
