Bungie - We want the Day 1 experience to be available to everyone and have a fighting chance to get the emblem and enjoy the experience.
Also Bungie - Let's release the raid 3 days after Final Shape so those who we wanted to include in the Day 1 experience (AKA: People that have work or other responsibilities) have to hard grind for 3 straight days or don't even bother.
Seriously this has to be the worst news with my current situation. My 2 week training would've ended on June 14th which if they stuck with their raid schedule with releasing the raid 9-10 days after an expansion/season, I could then get Day 1 with my clan mates and friends which I've been prepping with for the past year. Really hoping they re-consider to appease not just me, but many other people I see they've hindered with the announcement.
Also with the date in mind, what about the power grind, the gear prep, loadouts, meta switching, getting to enjoy the story and not have to speed run everything to be ready for Day 1. At this point are they gonna give the Gift of the Thundergods after Legendary Campaign?? Let's just release the first episode the week after if this is how quick we're pumping content.

I don’t think your personal schedule is a factor here. But I have some more bad news. They’re going to screw you over even more than that because the little prepping you can do before will be undermined by last-minute deactivation of weapons and armour because there will be glitches and problems like every season and they won’t fix any of it but rather F your raid experience even more. My pro tip: Don’t buy TFS.
