Frankly relocation, or a very extended relo, should always be present on NEW wards. The new wards were supposed to be a bandaid for people looking for their first home. Relocators bought the new plots then relo'ed where they wanted to, effectively undoing the insta-buy intention that was part of the incentive of these new wards.

The existing system, though obviously there for a reason, was exploited. Was this an oversight? Absolutely. These three wards were supposed to be timer free - that was their intention. By buying then relo'ing on the NEW plots, they were changed to work like the old wards - and that was not the intention per the Live Letters.

Whenever new wards are up they should be locked out for relo in order to give new purchasers priority. And if you already own a home, then demolish it and take your chances.
Relocation itself wasn't really the problem. The problem was the lack of an effective cooldown timer between purchase/relocations. If people had to wait 24 hours before they moved again, a small part of Tuesday's drama wouldn't have happened.

It still wouldn't have helped those who still weren't able to get a plot because the supply isn't big enough.
