I have to say, while I'm not sure whether or not I want transferring, I completely disagree with the notion that wanting a fresh start is bad because "you can do it if you want, but I want to keep my guys." There is a lot more to it than that. The thing that first and foremost pops into my mind is the ability for movesets to be reworked. Sure, they can always change up who learns what, but, as long as transferring exists, they can never take something away. Cutting off past gen compatibility does not simply mean no transferring, but instead opens up the ability to revamp things like never before. While I'm not fully for it, I would not mind in the least, as long as they take advantage of it and make some big changes.
