If you don't want to play additional characters, don't roll them. It's as simple as that - not to mention that according to your spoiler you're not even playing the game any more anyway.
But if you do want to play the game, and you do want to play additional characters then put in the effort and play them. Don't just ask for the whole game to be handed to you on a plate for all your other characters because you've done it once. That's not how MMORPGs work.

well spoiler not updated, sorry
but at all I will ask you then
wil have have fun of playing single character nonstop over 4 years?
as for me its nb and what I can do on him? for most of game time I can only be dps here
I would want go for tank and healer, ok I can but only for basic dungs, content
have you see history of all classes over full time live this game? some classes for msot time are really weak weak tanks or healers or DPS, they are the best in their main role or a bit in second as off-role
even just look at now at state of NB how ZOS gutted bith tanking and healin f NB and this is not jsut nb but other classes also got really gutted for specific roles

Then play the game with additional characters, personally I have 28 and I don't have a problem with the present arrangements (although I'd much prefer it if everything was character specific including champion points) - they're all different and it's how (MMO)RPGs are played. You'd be retiring a lot more often if you could simply jump straight to endgame each time you created a new character, it would become boring very quickly. Unlike e.g. FPS titles, these games are as much about the journey as the destination, if not more so. If, however, you want to try out different completed builds or classes without putting in any time on developing them then as you play on PC you have the PTS for that.

What -would- be really nice to have would be an account achievement overview page, accessed from the character selection screen. Where you can see which achievement was achieved by which of your characters and when... (and that one could also have a total achievement score collected from ALL your alts!)
Possibly with all the dye unlocks moved to there, and maybe added extra unlocks for multiple completions... like for example, complete mainstory with every class, get an extra outfit unlock (like the companions weapons?), reach emperor in every faction, get an extra mount (emperors chariot?), get a character from each of the alliance races to level 50, get an extra costume (maybe "diplomatic envoy" costume, that changes like the "alliance rider" depending on character?), do this or that with a certain set of your characters, get whatever in ways of extra costumes, outfit unlocks, pets or mount skins...

You don't need the achievements to do the content. The achievements have no function at all.
EDIT: Except related to master crafter and master writs and thus shouldn't be accountwide anyway.

and to master writs..well good to know as 1st time I hear about it, before I heared only learned recipes or other motifs have imact of this

Here we go again... another one of those "gimme" discussions?
All of those threads only ever talk about how great it would be for people to get everything account wide so they could have it all without spending any extra effort.
And that's why the whole idea is flawed and basically consists of various arguments around a core of "gimme!" - which is annoying to me, seeing as ESO -already- gives more account wide stuff then any other MMORPG I myself ever played, with bank, mail, dyes, outfit styles and the whole frigging champion system!
And none who keep asking for that sort of thing mention how it would be a benefit to ZOS... because it wouldn't!!!
They won't make account wide motivs, because they do sell motivs for those of little patience. (and the outfit system is account wide anyhow when it comes to motiv styles and dyes)
In the same spirit, they won't make acount wide riding because they sell riding lessons.
And they also won't be likely to let people bypass parts of the game like skyshard hunting, skill points, quests, levelling, guild advancement, etc.; at least not for free (I am still waiting for them to offer "skyshard crystals" and "regional exploration maps" for sale for those with more money then patience)
Because why would they give out more things for free then they already do?
What is their gain when people can try new classes while bypassing parts of their game, then quickly get towards feeling dissatisfied about "having nothing to achieve anymore" and leaving for the next new game?
For the roleplayers its of course a matter of principle... In an RPG, even a MMORPG, players interact with the game world through their characters and each and every character is depicted as seperate individual, and they grow and progress through the game as we play, often at diverging paths when you play multiple characters (that is the point of multiple characters after all, play the game once as nefarious sorcerous caster then as holy crusdader knight, then as ruthless rogue or as bloodsucking fiend, etc.; good RPGs even would allow for diverging storylines... play this way on your main, that way on your alt, etc.)
So as a habitual roleplayer, I personally prefer the achievements character based - it lets me see what this or that character has, well, achieved, and what is still left to do. Which skyshards that character missed. Which motiv (parts) that character has yet to learn. Which landmark that character may have forgotten to visit. Which notable public dungeon minibosses that character already took down, and which I still would have to hunt on it. Etc.
And I do say that as someone who would benefit -greatly- from account wide stuff, considering how many alts I have...
But in general... achievement points do nothing but let you check up on how much you have done on that character anyhow. Its everyones personal preference if they want to rack up those, or just let it slide... and yes, most do start achievement hunting when they have done everything else already, but noone really -needs- them.
So they can make their own choice again - if they want to spend the effort to hunti the same achievements on their alts as well, or have their alts do without.
Some achievements give titles, which definitely ought to be character specific... makes no sense if a new character fresh out of the tutorial has any of those titles...
And the dye unlocks from the whole system are account-wide anyhow...
...

But it does matter what character you get it on for a lot of achievements.

Some of us did things the hard way and are proud of it; Master Crafter without using research scrolls, maxed out horse training on all characters without without training scrolls, reaching and passing VR/CP cap without XP scrolls, taking our first character to other alliance zones by doing Cadwells Silver and Gold before 1T allowed you to go anywhere.
That was the game we bought and we accepted it and got on with it, instead if whining about it.
