So who is NOT getting Heavensward?!

I don't think you'll be able to level up past 50 without the expac @Natashio

I know. I read this that appeared in another thread and my right side of my brain exploded:

With the way the hard and expert dungeons from A Realm Reborn will be kept separate [[from Heavensward content]], will it be possible to level up there?

Yoshida: It was a tough decision, but we decided to leave it so that you will not obtain experience there at the start of Heavensward. As a development team, we believe that moving on past level 50 should happen on the Ishgard side. Because the new dungeons have a different pacing than the ones from A Realm Reborn, we were also afraid that people would gravitate towards the older instanced dungeons for more efficient experience.

After the situation settles down from the release of Heavensward, we might change things around by assigning some experience value, but that remains to be seen.

Hopefully it only applies to dungeons and to DoW/M jobs.

As a matter of fact, it does kind of remind me of how the game Destiny gates the weeklies and dailies behind the expansions. I can only assume SE didn't get this idea from that game. :X
