The thing is, they were only able to add the new servers so quickly during P4 because they anticipated it. They said it themselves. They basically had these servers all ready to go and only needed to flip a switch to add them to the list.

It's different this time. I don't think they genuinely thought they needed more than 50 worlds so it will take time for them to add new servers, if they choose to do so at all. Again, the issue is that half the servers are overloaded (NA/EU ones), yet the other half is underutilized (JP), so they're sitting on a lot of wasted space that people don't want to use because nobody wants to join a "Japanese" world.

If they don't add new servers, they need to abolish the silly JP/NA/EU labeling system so all servers can be used by all players in the world without the psychological barrier. Most people won't ever even notice the latency difference.
