I don’t have any data to backup that claim but is safe to assume that in terms of players, WoW is at his lowest.
The fact that for the first time ever we got 2 “bad” expansions back to back, FF14 rising and New World coming in a month, rapists killers etc working for Blizzard and lots and WoW losing many Twitch streamers and Youtubers, plus summer. It was pretty safe to assume already that we are not going to have a 9.3, but what if we also won’t get a 9.2 and just receive a mail from i don’t know Khadgar or someone else saying: “I kill the Jailer, it’s gg let’s go back to Azeroth” and we nuke the Shadowlands for us to never come back.
Or we get a 9.1.5 with a dungeon where we just kill him; i think the soon we get into the next expansion the better and if they mess up the next one to, can it be the end of WoW?
