I actually think that change might hurt the casuals more than TMO, since most of the real TMO members have multiple accounts. For example Versus I believe has Phisting, Pwny, and Botnet available to park on whatever spawnpoints.
I agree that the server as constructed is broken. I think the real problem is that EQLive kept the content treadmill running. On P1999 content comes out more slowly since our devs have day jobs, and the players progress through the content faster because they know all the strategies. Players having even two, let alone 3, L60 toons for raiding is just crazy for real EQ classic.
Anyway, I still think the best raid fix for the server would be twice a week reboots at fixed times with FTE shouts.
