This. I generally play from before the Ultima Weapon ultimatum was made (or at least before it became widespread knowledge that something was going down, because I like the conflicts that the stalemate of sorts between the Eorzean Alliance and the Garlean Empire can cause and I want a chance to play in that environment before updating. Personally I feel like we've not had much of a chance to see how the announcement of peacetime has changed the world yes, and I'm hoping 2.1 gives us more insight on that. Once we hit 2.1 I'll probably update to however things start out in 2.1, and so on.
But honestly, if someone played from a different point I'd probably switch to accommodate that whenever I was playing with them and then switch back. It's bad form in a consistency sense, I know, but making sure everyone has fun is more important than that.
