What you "feel" is the reason for people disliking the time gate is not based on what people are actually saying. Many people have already explained how their reasoning has nothing to do with instant gratification but how pointless time gating is an attempt at anet to control how they spend their time. It's more similar to a skinner box mobile game than an MMO. You have to 'suck it up' when you go to work, pay a bill or do yard work. If you're having to 'suck it up' to play a video game then the game isn't doing what it's suppose to, providing you fun and entertainment. Well these are my opinions time gating has existed since ascended armor in Guild Wars 2. So yes suck it up. I have explained in my previous posts the difference between time gating materials for economic control and time gating items with no economic value. You're calling people kids but you're not taking the time to think this through like an adult. I'm less worried about this instance of time gating and more so worried about the precedence it sets for future new content. You telling people to suck it up is just lazy. 'Suck it up' is just a synonym for "This is bad, but do it anyways because I don't feel like coming up with a better solution". Now you're attacking me because of my opinions because I do not agree with you, So I guess who is the real adult here.Every game makes you earn things, Legendary armor has a long time gate and people barely complained about that. So a few days of a Skyscale collection isn't going to kill people. You have months to wait for new content what this is telling me is that most of these people will get the mount and leave till next update.
