Why not release Classic with a lev cap like beta?

[Charge me Doctor]

Something something gating, something something blizzard greedy, something something powerleveling is a choice, something something handholding, something something catering

That sounds dumb.

Not just sounds...

If you want to stay at 30, then stay at 30. Nobody is forcing you to keep leveling.

Hell arguably it's gonna be easier to sit at level "caps" since Classic could potentially have a "twink" PVP community in each bracket (something that I think has been missing from live since ... Cata?)

no, the casual who loaded the responses on the poll can stuff it.
no one should be hamstrung to your level.

It's going to take me three months (or more) to level to 60 anyway. Why do I care how long it takes other people?

Having cap is not going to stop rushing. It just means you rush 1 character, wait, then rush again. Of course, this is ONLY if you opt-in doing it that way. Otherwise, if you are not planning to rush, it won't matter if there is gated levels.

HOWEVER

Month 1: Level 20
Month 2: Level 30
Month 3: Level 40
Month 4: Level 50
Month 5: Level 60

+ Allows players to level more characters without feeling of falling behind. It's a catchup mechanic and gives time to level professions too.
+ Keeps players looking forward to the next unlock.

- Creates "new zones" with congestion. Too many players leveling each time cap is raised, it's bit of a problem.
- Restricting, does not give you freedom to decide whether you want to cap rush as you are time gated.

I'm going to level for 6-10 months, so I don't really care.
