1 - It's clearly obvious the devs wants to section out a particular part of the game for it's high level of difficulty. While having the game at it's core accessible for as many people as possible. That's clearly a mission statement and would not change any more than WoW diverging from it's core dynamics.

Yes, we are also complaining about how they have diverged from their original mission statement after the 1.0 nuke where they said things like realizing they need to prioritize hearing player feedback and that fun is the objective. So enjoy either cutscene simulator or studying for savage raids. I'll play something else.

2 - This toxic behavior is constantly seen from the "get gud" who demands higher levels of difficulty for their enjoyment while demeaning those who enjoy a more casual experience.

I enjoy a more casual experience. I am a filthy casual scrub who plays roulettes. I don't want high difficulty, I want *any* difficulty at all. Some amount of skill has to be expected at lvl 50, 70, 90 and so on.

3 - The changes reflected here would apply to all 3 categories (European, American, and Japanese.) Unless this feedback was given from the three different locations, there's no way they're going to adjust the content to fit a small vocal minority in one demographic location.

No, only unless feedback is given from the Japanese demographic will any feedback be considered. In fact, if all three voiced the same concerns, it would take away and reduce the credibility of the Japanese opinion to the devs.

4 - Forums in general are mostly a place where people go to criticize content. If the feedback was as massive as some give credence too, we would be seeing these changes with dawntrails. Instead, we see the opposite with even more damage migitation given to tanks. This clearly gives the impression that there is more feedback being given that tanks are too squishy and need more self protection.
Also no. In 1.0 squex actually disabled and hid the forums due to the massive negative feedback instead of addressing it or considering it. It was a year or so later when any plans for changes were announced.
The idea that "everything is the way most people want it" is very... first order thinking, to be polite.
