    You are neglecting the fact that while browsing the MW, players are actually moved off of the servers for the cities at large and onto a physically different server, thus reducing stress in the cities. This is a huge benefit that goes unmentioned in all of the threads talking about MW vs AH.

    If they made retainers summonable from our homes, and allowed us to access the wards from our retainers that also would eliminate congestion for the more crowded areas.

    Or the market ward counter could still be a separate instance as it is now, just without the umpteen rooms full of retainers.
