You make an excellent point with the benefits of a zone being familiar. Technically, the best XP I've ever gotten 35-40 was in Kaesora and that was with a non-optimal group. It was insane. But it's out of the way, and we wiped a few times.

The castle isn't a death sentence, you just need either:
1. A puller who knows the castle really well
2. A good enchanter/bard

I've had many successful groups in the castle with no wipes, and it's very rewarding.

Try hard to find a good core of competent people and try out-of-the-way zones. I did it on one of my characters, leveled all over the world with a smart enchanter and druid, and it was the best experience I've ever had leveling.
