If they were to add instanced housing and keep the wards, there would be a lot of elitism over who has the "legacy" housing, hosting events at an instanced house probably wouldn't fill either, they'd want to pack into a ward instead. Everyone would still fight over the remaining wards. It's either all or nothing, get rid of all wards and go instanced or keep their current way of releasing a new area and new wards once every 2 years.
No there wouldn't. Only in the most niche of cases can I even remotely picture Elitism when it comes to housing because most people just want a house. And I doubt they'd be throwing a huge fit because they couldnt get a house in a neighborhood instead of an instanced one.

Also, anytime someone says its either all or nothing its safe to assume they do not value the act of compromising or working together to solve an issue in a realistic situation. So I have to disagree with you.
