1) Is a statement of fact. You're stating a subjective opinion. You say what YOU feel as an absolute, but it isn't. "you start to get bored"; yes, you start to get bored. I've yet to get bored. We may have different thresholds, but a lot of people play the game, play Healers, and aren't bored, and have done higher end content and core content. Many of such people have been playing the game (and even older games) for a long time. I've been playing since ARR. I have "a solid opinion", it just isn't the same as your own. That's what "That's subjective, not objective" means. You are stating your feelings and opinion, which is perfectly fine. Your opinion is valid...for you. But it isn't universal and isn't what everyone else feels.
2) I'd love to see statistics everyone agrees with your position unless they're new/experienced? I've been playing since 2.3. I've been doing Extremes since HW. I've been doing Exploration content since HW. I've done Savages since ShB, and early (week 2-3) Savages since 6.0. Unless you're going to say Extremes aren't hard content or Savages don't count, then my position is one person who disagrees with your position and isn't a new/less experienced player, meaning my mere existence disproves your position being universal.
3) Absolutely relevant - you're literally creating a toxic, abrasive environment that is running people off. That's bad no matter what the topic is. Worse, it's often used as proof that you're right - that no one (or only one person) is disagreeing with you, when you're actively running off anyone else who does so. That's highly important to the topic. I get you'd be quick to want that not to be mentioned, because of how bad it makes things look here - but they actually ARE that bad. There's a reason there are few dissenting voices here to your position and that there aren't a lot of happy, enthusiastic people posting here. Part is because happy, enthusiastic people are often playing the game and having fun, not posting about it on forums, but the other part is how toxic and abrasive this forum has become from the regulars to people who are happy with the way things are right now. You not wanting your dirty laundry aired doesn't make it irrelevant to do when it happens.
Change isn't "required" - the game is hugely popular and has a stable population. Change is "desired" by a portion of the population. THAT is a fact, yes.
