We all know it's incredibly slow and tedious to be traveling around the spiral without a mount. But something I dislike about mounts is that you can't see your pets when you are mounted. I think it would be neat to be able to see your pets continue to run alongside you when you are mounted, many other games have this small feature. Maybe if people are for whatever reason particularly against this it can be an option you can switch on and off in settings, so people who want to see their little friends run along side them and can and those who don't simply don't have to.
