Yes I know everyone complains about everything, but people (including that 1%) already nerd rage about being "forced" into LFR - Flex - Normal just to do the heroics, there is no way they would agree to LFR - Heroic dungeon - Normals etc.
For all the complains about casuals whining they want instant gratification right now, I find it humorous that certain groups of people cry about the same shit on a different scale. (Not you mind you, I'm being general in this statement, and not saying you are complaining obviously.) They want into the content THEY want right away without needing to go through X-easy content first, but rather go straight to the hard stuff. Yet it's not ok for people less savvy with hard content to complain they don't want a difficult heroic dungeon because it gets between them and the LFR which was designed FOR That kind of player to start with.
