1. Yep, and it's up to the Publisher to decide how nice they're going to be to the non-paying community - how much they're gonna separate content for F2P and paying. And guess what, SOE's pretty frickin' nice about it, and people like OP are not appreciating it.

2. Yes. Higher overall population makes the game more fun for everyone, seeing as scale is one of the most important parts of this game. If people take their subs somewhere else, then it will snowball quickly. But if it's F2P? The only resource people will be sacrificing is their time, and if they're still having a moderately good time, they can just keep playing.
For examples of low effing population, see the PTS.
