The solo friendly/small group friendly Silithus content mentioned referred to Blizzard posts made well prior to 1.8. I can't speak for anyone else but the impression I had for a long time prior to it's release was that AQ would include at least one endgame 5-man instance along with the raid instances, that only the raid instances would need raid sized groups and that Silithus would overall provide significant opportunities for character advancement for stalled non-raiding players.
That turned out not to be the case, but on rereading the posts they were technically accurate. Call it hearing what I wanted to hear or call it misdirection by Blue, I still felt lied to. Caydiem's post responding to someone asking whether non raiders could obtain the then-forthcoming Druid weapon scaling item is another example.
