if simultaneous respawns means exactly recreating patch days, then yes. from the wording of the poll, however, it didn't necessarily mean that and only that.

i don't see a remove variance option on loraen's poll, so I'm not sure what box you think i would be checking there. what option are you referring to?

its possible that i'm reading the options differently than you (or was intended by op), but on their own i think i read them fairly.
My apologies, I'm so used to seeing Loraen's posts that I know when he advocates repops, he also advocates repops replacing variance:

Also I'm curious that not more people like my repop probability proportional to player population. At least when I suggested simultaneous repops, I meant them mostly as a replacement for the retarded variance scene we have now, not an addition.
By repops, he means server comes down (likely a nominal 5-15minutes instead of "all morning" that was "Classic Patch Days"), when it comes back up all raid mobs are spawned (or will spawn within the next 15-30minutes). Some of his other options modify the log-in process (like the anti-poopsock code moving players if they are pre-camped).
