That is entirely you having unrealistic expectations and not at all understanding what the post said.
As usual, you are making the assumption that everyone is like you and would want or expect a massive, sprawling maximum plot size base with intricately designed complex structures with all the bells and whistles. Not everyone wants that. Some people are just looking for a very simple, one room hub that has everything they need in one convenient place and are not at all interested in aesthetics or anything complex.
Also, @Ukase expressly stated in the post the bases would be "Nothing fancy, just a base with TP beacons to all zones, tailor, trainer, workbench, insp storage, enhancement storage bin and empowerment buff stations." At least to me, that is very clearly described.
