That being said it'd be premature to merge at present; Green isn't even through its timeline yet. Later on, maintaining a timeline-complete Green as a form of defacto instancing is the same argument that people made in favor of keeping Teal open. We know how that turned out.

Just because a server can handle the load, doesn’t mean EQ was designed to have that many people all crammed into its top end competing for the same small number of high end camps and raid mobs

When loramin mentions strain on a guide team, a more spread out population would mean less drama and lawyering over mobs overall (for example, how often does it happen on Red?) A more dense population means more disputes and drama over mobs
