You have to remember, guys, that Eureka was probably completed MONTHS ago. Right now, the dev team is working on who-knows-what for probably patch 4.5 or maybe even 5.0 at this point. So they are concentrating on other things. Eureka sounds like this area that was full of promise and potential, but maybe got shelved for other priorities. And when its time came, it was probably pushed out to give us "something" to chew on while other content is being developed. They had to make it a grind to fill the time before the next patches.

Now, let me say that I *love* the area design. There are places on the island that are downright beautiful, mysterious and treacherous. I *so* want to gather where those big green crystals are socked into the trees.

It's just that...they boasted Eureka as something new and innovative they wanted to try, but there's nothing there that we don't have outside of Eureka, beyond the magia board. And while it's useful for NMs, it's not that big of a deal with smaller mobs. I find myself forgetting to adjust it all the time. It seems more like a hindrance than a help.
