Only 10 Daily Achivements?

The PvP and PvE daily and monthly achievements will be merged. There will be enough achievements that you will be able to complete your dailies and monthlies entirely in PvE, WvW, or PvP if you like – but you can also dabble in different game modes and complete your achievements by playing a mix of content.

When I read this I expected that the amount of available dailies would be higher than the 12 that were in the PvE/WvW section before the update. Now there are only 10, a fact that, in my view, stands in high contrast to the announcement above.

Perhaps ANet wants to motivate us to play game modes that we have not played in the past (or not so often), but I think that this a rather contraproductive way to archive that goal.
I (and very likely many others) can’t play the game for hours every day. So, let’s say that today I can spend one hour with GW2. I have to choose between doing the stuff I like and getting the dailies done.

I think the main reason why dailies and monthlies exist is to give players a motivation to play the game regularly (ideally on a daily basis). But this doesn’t really work if for this kind of motivation, another one (doing thinks I like) needs to stand back.
