Solo Instances - Southpoint Cathedral and The Orrery

The Cathedral of the Golden Path in Southpoint and The Orrery in Elden Root are the only locations that you visit during any alliance's storyline that are solo instances, and there is absolutely no good reason for it. If you are questing with [a] friend(s), everyone is forced into their own instances of these locations, and this doesn't happen anywhere else. They don't even scale like Main Quest or Guild solo instances.

Storywise, there is nothing special about these locations that is not replicated to some extent in a non-instanced location elsewhere. For example, saving the Heart of Valenwood in Hectahame (Greenshade), visiting the Far Shores in the Hall of Heroes (Bangkorai), entering the Dream of the Hist in Loriasel (Shadowfen), destroying the Lightless Remnant in the Doomcrag (Rivenspire), and defeating Sinmur at Trolhetta (The Rift) are all functionally similar to the Orrery quest, and are not solo instances. Similarly, the questing setup of Lorkrata Hills (Rivenspire), Fort Virak (Deshaan), and numerous other runs through "interior" locations are essentially the same as the setup of Southpoint's cathedral.

So I would like to request to ZOS that they reconsider the instancing of these locations, by removing the solo-only restriction and setting them up like every other alliance storyline quest location.
