There is some core differences though to "classic" pay to win games:
a) The demand of boosting is entirely player driven. And b) You still need people to do the content. Just having money gives you nothing, if you do not have people, who are offering those runs.
And c) As we have seen with classic, no, not having the token doesn't solve the issue either. People will buy it, and just buy their gold from much more dubious unsecured sources. Or will break the rules of the game themselves doing the botting, and just hope, Blizzard just won't do anything.
