Exactly.
As I've said a million times, just trying to restore the game settings to the classic timeline does not recreate the classic Everquest experience. You have to take far more liberties and actually change things in order to recreate the classic Everquest experience.

Excellent points.
There're a million things one can bring up. First thing that comes to my mind is the fact that everything was new to us in 1999-02. There was no enormous pool of information on the internet, either. (In my later years on live I used allah almost daily to locate loots, quests, etc.) Furthermore, the graphics were considered acceptable - there was less complaining about that. The population was much higher. The list goes on.
The settings and code on p1999 are not exact. We will never perfectly duplicate it and even if we did perfectly duplicate it, as you and others have pointed out, it would still not be the same experience.
