Someone who has completed the story and at level 90 who is in ARR tome gear is "ilvl cheesing". Someone who is still in ARR, but has a level 90 character in ARR tome gear is effectively doing the same thing. I understand the "free" means of gearing isn't available to them, but both characters are effectively the same.

I'm not forgetting this. We don't know who exactly is being excluded from the roulette and how many raids they would qualify for (outside of CT obviously). So it's possible that everyone excluded qualifies for high level raids and so because of their exclusion, the instances of CT go up.

That is not very likely to be true, but I'm not trying to say that is what we're experiencing. I just want to point out the boundaries of what is possible.
Well we do know for a fact that people qualifying for 90 ARs when queueing would not be in this group since they would have to be proper ilvl to have unlocked those raids. That alone quantifies an increase in non-CT raids as the Twelve series is not impacted unlike CT. I do agree however that 60s, 70s, and 80s impacts are unknown.
