This is beyond stupidity.
I'm sorry you feel that way, but it's important for a game to provide ways for newer people to catch up. Them being able to get it easier won't change that there's still going to be new hard content, nor will it change that you were able to accomplish back when this was considered the hard content.


And guess what, the people who benefit from this will end up going for the new hard content, work hard for it, and see it get nerfed somewhere in the future for the next-next generation of new people so they can catch up too (and some of them will feel the same way you do, while others won't care because thanks to price fluctuations and people moving on, it'll be difficult for those newer people to catch up if the game didn't get any nerfs to help them).

It's no different than when new token systems are added while older token systems get eased, or when older dungeons/raids get nerfed. New people want to be able to play too; it doesn't change what the older players accomplished.
