Fair enough. I imagine that should they be rather restrictive about it that they would probably open up a short, and I do emphasize short, window where players can transfer their characters for free. While I do hope SE does not do this, you are absolutely right in that it is a very real possibility that they may charge to do so, or they may simply transfer excess players without any warning. I am hoping that this does not come to pass, as many people will be extremely upset, including myself.
