They've been a bit confusing on the subject of moogles as of late, honestly. In XIV, Moogles are an ancient race that has been around for a very, very long time. They've almost exclusively made their home in the Twelveswood, and lived alongside the elementals.
As such, they're very in tune with the happenings of Gridania and the shroud, and that had been their focus for the longest of times. Now, in 1.0, everyone could see moogles. It was only those with the Echo (and the Padjali), however, that could understand Mooglespeak - their language.
Now, I do remember it being mentioned in the new opening that moogles can't be seen by just anyone, which sort of throws a wrench in what they've previously established. It also seems to contradict the lore behind the mailing system. Canonically, the moogles started delivering mail after the calamity because linkpearls had temporarily lost all function. No one had any means of communications, and the moogles stepped up to fill that need. Eventually, some realized it was their true calling and they kept at it.
The moogles even went so far as to jokingly say they were sick and tired of hearing everyone yell at eachother in order to relay messages, so they started the mail system. Anyways, point being, mail moogles seem to be commonplace for all Eorzeans. It'd be a bit strange if mail was handed off to you by some invisible force every now and again.
Which brings me to my speculation.
