Quoting what you've said, I agree trials are placed upon heavy restrictions, however you've also left out that due to these restrictions most players quit. Due to most people quitting and Graal not having many players, servers don't feel an introduction or tutorial to the game is needed, therefor trails usually don't learn to play, and also, quit.
I had a friend who didn't know how to use F7 or Tab for 2 months trying Graal off and on... Some people will walk up to you and start slashing until you say "Press Tab to talk". Most servers don't even explain how to make money on them, after years of being off the servers I don't even know how to make money on UN or Era... I assume Zodiac you kill things.
Maybe once Observermode is gone, servers that are up as well as players will think more of the newer players and possibly teach them, or even go a step further and make a tutorial for them. (Preferably one that is re-playable)

This is good to know that it is no longer a reason to not rid of the intolerable OB mode.
