    That is a very gross assumption. I've never run into a single new player that was THAT bad. Not even 'new' players I've seen are that bad. The only ones I have seen that were are those that would fall into a very different category, none of them proc'd the new player message on start. Yeah, I'm convinced, pretty clear you aren't talking from a position of concern for new players nor even 'new' players.

    I am talking from the position of "not making content more easier than it is".

    Trials and dungeons are getting nerfed due to numbers of failed runs. I presume that portion of these is related to new players. It is not entire player base that is bad, but they are more prone to be bad, due to the practice of getting through the content through sheer iLevel difference. Basically the roulette is great idea, but the impatience of the high level players is teaching new players bad habits, which imo results in more and more instances being nerfed.

    Edit:

    To make myself clear. I consider nerfing content only when there are first timers lesser evil than nefing it for all the players.
