How is anyone fine with the 4-month patch delivery schedule?

I could care less that its coming out two weeks late. I do care that it's the same predictable patch as 5.1, 4.1, and 3.1.

Predictability and consistency is what they TRY to achieve vs what other games have. It's a tradeoff, sure it might not make content as exciting because you know what should be there, but it's also reliable. Something you can easily plan your life around. Besides, the only similar parts are usually the Raids, Trials, Dungeons. As we have seen in the Live Letters for 6.1, we will be getting items not consistent, such as a new and revamped PVP mode, Hildebrand quests, Ultimates, etc.
