I'm not certain it's something that any development team would have anticipated. They're thinking about what the system is intended to accomplish.

Players are the ones who think in terms of "how can I use this to my greater advantage" . Get a couple of hundred players together for a brainstorming session so they can bounce ideas around and they would have hit on all players congregating on a single data center before long.
