Actually, we've adjusted mana and health regen at low levels (in the upcoming patch) so that food and water aren't really necessary right at the start. Believe it or not, it's not about someone being too "dumb" to figure something out so much as realizing that not everyone enters into playing the game with a knowledge of how MMOs work. Food and water is just one more thing for a new player to learn about very quickly when starting the game and we'd like to ease players into how things work as they go along. They'll learn all about food and water soon enough after.

Keep in mind, for many people, (even veteran players) they didn't realize they could drink and eat at the same time early on in the game. Imagine being brand new to MMOs and having to learn the mechanics and complexities of what are considered very simple things to experienced gamers.
