I don't see the point of adding Luclin or custom content to a server which set out to recreate a Classic experience. Nor do I see the devs having energy to bother with it and Luclin seems especially pointless now that Quarm's doing it.
If they don't plan on releasing another fresh server I think they should just add rotating Legacy content on the original release schedule meaning players given time will have another go at Firepots, Guise, Manastone, Beads and even Warder Loot. Sure, not exactly Classic but like you say, neither is 5 years of Velious. I think it would motivate players to return and start up more alts as well.
Whilst fresh may seem enticing it's also somewhat of a pain. On green people were struggling to find free camps just to kill a single mob every 6-12 minutes on repeat. The XP is crawling, many abilities are missing and class XP penalties are brutal.

Yeah I could see them resetting sleeper's tomb every 2 years or whatever the original timeline is but that would probably be fun for like 1 day.
Cycling legacy content would be interesting, or making a quest for the more popular ones and making them no drop.
I think AAs is a bad idea (they'd never do it anyway) because it would further trivialize the actual content. Everyone is complaining about lack of grouping due to solo twinks, this will only make things worse. Honestly though, if you want non classic changes or new content I think people are just on the wrong server for that.
They made teal last time due to the overwhelming popularity of green at release, pretty sure they'd do the same this time around.
But honestly, they're already swamped with like 20 000+ petitions, I'm not sure they're ready for a new server on that front. Although 50% of those petitions are probably Salaryman asking why kelorek'dar drops 2 swords and no shield.
