I heard that this is partly due to having higher difficulty quests more aimed towards high level players, cuz if the event is available to all players, then the quests will be boring to the veteran players. Yes it's unfortunate news to new players, but then again veteran players take up most of the player base in the game.

Point is, you won't be able to get the welfare Servants if you can't reliably clear the free quests in the event. The story lock is there because otherwise the event will be too difficult for most new players.

And yeah some of it is partly to avoid spoilers. Some of the event's story won't make sense if you're still in Arc 1.

Also the last event not to be story locked was the Summer Festival.
