If you're referring to economics, to me the biggest concern is duplication of plat. Now, I'm obviously not saying that an eventual Green server merged back with Teal will be like Blue inflation level after a year of being separate. But there's certainly an ability to farm lots of plat in the pre-Kunark area through a multitude of cash camps (to say nothing of the camps that aren't necessarily in the top tier of cash camps, but also supply a decent amount).
Since EQ is of course an old game, there aren't really many money sinks at all since the devs never thought of it and didn't anticipate the game even being around enough for inflation to be a big problem. I think anything that moves us further down the road to inflation faster than we otherwise would is simply a bad thing overall.

If blue continued and green/teal didn't happen...a lot of players would be farming plat on blue anyway, inflation overall doesn't stop. Have some perspective. I'm now farming plat on green instead of blue, and my characters roll into the blue economy in 980ish days.
If you're some blue tunnel fat cat concerned about his plat hoard, your currency is already dead.
