    It is not fraud for the producers to change the contents of the product for other people who will buy it in future.

    What's the actual problem here, and would it be a problem if they'd simply added this story as new MSQ+dungeons in 5.3?
    I meant in the sense that this book's intent is to not have MSQ ARR content block you from extensions. CT is side content, but it is ARR. That's why I think it's a grey area, even moreso that they seem to have acknowledged it since NOW, the book also unlocks CT.

    That's the intention, yes. But in any case you paid for a story skip to the start of Shadowbringers, which is not gated by CT. And presumably used it at a point where CT had not yet become mandatory with the release of 5.3.

    If CT was required to start playing 5.0 and the story skip didn't complete it for you - dropped you at the start of the game and said "oh sorry, you'll have to go do something else immediately first" - that would be poor planning. But that isn't the case here - they've only introduced the requirement later, and changed the product to reflect that.
