I can't say anyone would get fired over it, outside of that dumbfuck who said "you think you do, but you don't". Any firings would be due to pressure from aboves askin why they didn't do it sooner.

I'm curious (not being rude) what world you live in that you think classic will have anywhere NEAR even half as many players as retail, at ANY point?

This, ultimately, will be something that keeps people playing on classic. If streamers play on it, the sheep will follow. So in reality, it would be a horrible gague of truly how much people want to play retail.
So really, it would be a huge dump in players on classic during raid days, a spike outside of raid days/hours and rinse/repeat. At the same time, I'm unsure how much this will actually matter considering when I pop into random streamer's stream they are still talking about grinding out AP... can't grind AP if you're playing classic.
