I support this.
Locking the new 24-man behind CT? No way.
Adding incentive by improving the rewards for Gift of the Archmagus? Absolutely!
Adding the current top tome (esoterics atm) as a reward to any content will keep it relevant. I don't know why so little content rewards us esoterics. Even adding 20 to the end of something older will encourage people to play it if they get bored of the selection we have now. :S
Hell, just as an extra something-something for people leveling, I'd even say tack on an XP bonus of either 432,000 or even 864,000, as 864,000 is the exact number of XP needed to get from 50 to 51. And being a weekly quest that requires three full-scale raids to complete, I think that's a fair number of XP.
Just add a Raid Roulette for CT/ST/WoD, and BCoB 1-4.

I guess the people calling for this completely missed how Crystal Tower is entirely optional and can be completely ignored in regards to the rest of the game, like Coil. And given Coil isn't needed to access Alexander, what indication is there that Crystal Tower will have any impact on the next beer-and-pretzels raid?
