Why do players need to populate specific worlds over others? If you can answer that then you know SE has very little choice but to implement population balancing measures. Besides it's expansion time, most worlds are going to have much higher activity than usual thus causing congestion. Either your friend waits for Behemoth to become open again or they make do with another world for the time being, the players have to compromise somewhere, SE can only do so much. New players are not more valuable than alts, besides alts suffer from the very same creation restrictions anyway...
