"Just use discord" is such a lazy excuse for people to hand to square. They're a 2 billion dollar company that extracts your money every month, let THEM do the job of making their own content relevant again. Even when you put up a PF, assuming you can even get 8 people during primetime, you just wait in queue for 10 mandatory minutes, zone in, and wow wouldn't you know it. There's nobody else there. Imagine blowing money and devtime on content that you know is gonna be hella abandoned in like a year, when you could avoid that by just throwing it in the roulette.
I think you'd cause more problems than you would solve because those are completely different formats of raids. Alliance Raids are much more structured and hold to roles more strictly. You'd get people who only did DR because they had to dropping because they were expecting the normal Alliance Raid format. If they do anything, they should find a way to get the instances into DF for these zones and make a roulette of that. Then people aren't blindsided by something like DR where they queued as a healer but there are no tanks so now they're expected to take on a different role using Lost Actions they may or may not have any real understanding of.
