And yeah, this - I'm pretty sure they didn't introduce data caching until the Titanium client, and even then that was still a pretty new concept for an online game. And that was likely pre-SATA when 100 GB of storage was top of the line, so when they introduced texture caching as an optional thing in the Titanium client it would only cache zones as you encounter them instead of just writing them all into cache when you start up the client.
I think what he was saying is that now that we are in the year 2016, where anything is possible (Donald Trump for instance), why not just make it so that there is no more zone loads.
