Im torn. For one, they did the same with Mhach region surrounding the city itself, so those regions are discarded. On the other hand, maybe it means we are not going to Gyr Abania and Ala Mhigo next expansion.

So yeah, we lost a lore-rich potentially full region with this dungeon for the most probably place the expansion is going, but i guess maybe still there is a chance to head to Meracydia instead.
