haven't there been like a hundred of these threads already? 5.1 didnt have a cinematic, only raid patches do.
Patches don't need to include raid to have cinematics, I want my cinematic!!
pretty much only get them for new raids, cant wait for the 5.4 one, its sure to be epic!

You're not allowed to discuss conspiracy theories on mmo-champion, which makes me wonder what they're trying to hide.
Given the usual patch trailer cinematics use in-game assets (and not rendered cinematics like the expansion ones), you can safely assuming it is potentially handled by the same team making the new environments, models, skins, etc. And they have probably been very busy, after finishing any art assets for 5.2 (which was a ton), and what work they had to for 5.3 (still had some work there, changing the Northern Barrens environment to the new battlefield it is now, plus the new arena, BGs, and scnearios), they are likely neck-deep in work for 5.4's development, with no real time to make a little cinematic for small amount of storytime.
Games are not necessarily "easier" today. You are just a better player.
It takes more now to impress many gamers than it did 2-5 years ago, because so much has already been seen and done.
Many players expect to be wow'd with every release of a beloved franchise.
These are generally NOT the fault of the developers, but the fault of many players over-hyping and/or setting expectations too high.
There have been some other threads about this in which much the same information has already been discussed. The short answer is they don't usually do a trailer for a patch that doesn't contain a raid.
Here's a thread that was active yesterday.
