I'm not sure if you're quoting me to confirm what I say, or if you thought I was considering it bad.
For the record, I
much prefer the moderate growth in Classic, and I think the rampant power inflation since late WotLK is the single worst design flaw in the game that ruins everything else.

There is a number of people who went into extreme and basically claimed that Vanilla was some sort of super-hard version of the game on every level.
The thing is, while they did exist, they were a small minority. But they are used by a lot of people with very specific agenda (or a ton of bad faith) to pretend that they were the mainstream opinion of pro-Classic player.
It's just, in the end, a pretext to be able to pull a strawman and ignore the actual, much more reasonable and much more valid, main arguments.

And Sartharion was
soloed by the end of ICC.
Guess it's three times as moderate as WotLK, which is already pretty moderate compared to today's power curve.
Now that the obvious bait has been dealt with, care to compare the stat on T1 vs T3 and then the (pre-squish) first tier of Legion with latest tier (of the same difficulty) and then just show numbers ? Because you need some heavy-duty bad faith to ignore something that simple and obvious.
