Nope, would leave instantly. Other mmo's went the route of making things unnecessarily difficult. Hell I left during cataclysm for that very reason. I'm a solo player, guildless and all. I don't get my jollies off by a challenge, I play to relax and to me relaxing isn't doing something hard. Hell I'd pay more for easier difficulty. Or at least I'd pay more for gear to be less of a factor of your stats.
