Honestly the idea of at least time locking the expansion progression staves off the inevitable, and the player base has the right to choose to hold off on releasing the next expansion. That lends some credence to the idea but the way the dev team on P99 is working makes it seem more like a, "Jeez I just heard of this new expansion coming out I wonder when they'll give us more information!" like it was in classic rather than the voting system Fippy has where it's simply, "Kill these mobs and let's vote to have the next expansion released in 90 days so we can get to bigger targets."
P99 at least leaves some appeal to exploring the world on alts or even on mains, regardless if you're raiding targets. For those that get bored and want ultra fast progression right back up to live, Fippy is a good idea.
