You know, I really [censored] hate having to repeat myself. MMO is a genre, FFXIV is also a Final Fantasy title. so every time you approach it, it is a Final Fantasy game.

A change in genre is a significant reason to have that reflected in the title. Last thing you want is for a fan of the mainline series to buy it and find out afterwards that it requires a monthly fee, and that you're forced into playing with a group of other players for certain missions (there were at least 5 such dungeons and 3 boss battles in the original XIV), and that the game is designed to be properly experienced when playing in a community, etc.
It's a Final Fantasy game, like Fantasy Star Online is a Fantasy Star game.

Anyway, call it mainline if you want. Just don't tell me that the number on the box determines that. It's because of people who think that way that companies put misleading titles on games.

In case you didn't freaking notice, I'm calling it the way the developers are calling it. So excuse me for trying to educate you. I've had enough of your bullshit speculations, so move on to the real topic of this thread.

You must be out if your damn mind to compare 14 to phantasy star online..
