If they joined, 14 tried to retain them and still failed then

1) the rest of us would have more content

2) at least they could say they tried so to speak

They really don’t have a leg to stand on when they didnt even try
this is just false.

Endwalker was already basically in the can and you would have wanted them to rewrite and re develop everything on the off chance that the WoW immigrants were ACTUALLY interested and might stick around? pushing back release already ticked the regular people off, and you would have wanted them to push it back further, to try and impress people who had bagged on the game for years already because it wasnt WoW?

not sure what universe you live in, but in this one, successful companies dont trashbin an expansion based on a surprise influx, what ifs and wishful thinking. there are not any reasonable ways to retain those players that would not have annoyed long term players or caused an exodus here.
