    I expect the reasons for the reset are not likely anything more than time and money. We're talking about a team that is stretched to the breaking point that is already dealing with what is likely a laundry list of last minute issues (2 week delay?). We've got hardware shortages affecting server roll outs on top of all that. I'm not educated nor experienced in the field but I have some experience managing very large projects and sometimes things just don't make the cut. Must do. Should do. Nice to do. It just didn't make the cut.

    That’s true, and I hadn’t thought of that perspective. Depending on what issues they’re hammering out, it’s entirely possible they may not have the 3-4 hours it would take to implement something like this.

    3-4 hours only if you skip testing. For something like this it would require thorough testing. Updating the character database is something that just isn't allowed to go wrong. So add a few days (at least) for testing.
