The original devs would have made most of the same, or similar, changes if time had permitted. Were newbies intended to be running around with their epics equipped? Not according to McQuaid. It isn't epic if the twink just destroyed their *sword to make room for the MQ. The list goes on.
This is as classic as it gets and that is due the playerbase. Disagree? Email what devs are still alive and get their thoughts on the matter. But there are still a lot of changes that could be made based on dev intentions which weren't implemented due to tech limitations at the time.
