Why fix it if it's not broken? The rigid loops they designed are designed are rigid for a reason. Cataclysm destroyed WoW both in game and IRL. Just take a look at this video and observe what happened to WoW after December 2010, when Cataclysm was released: https://youtu.be/rU19OFZ0vz4?t=173

Spoiler: Within a year it had lost half of its players. Players like roulettes and tomestones. Change for the sake of change is never good. Removing the game's most popular content just to switch things up is a great way to alienate your players and foster hostility.
