MC is a big problem though, because it isn't a progression in difficulty from ZG or AQ20, but the rewards are a progression in quality. For example, Venoxis is similar in difficulty to Lucifron.

I wonder how much of this is with the benefit of hindsight. MC may seem easy now, but back when it was new, people were wiping easily to the first pull of the instance, something that is much less likely to happen in ZG.

If I remember rightly, Maraudon was added after retail; there have also been other areas fleshed out with successive patches (Revantusk village in the hinterlands; Thorium Point in the searing gorge; and a few quests added here and there such as at Steamwheedle Port). This fleshing out of zones is good, but it adds content that should've been there all along. I would really like to see more high-level quests so there is _something_ to do besides grind (instances or mobs) or raid once you hit 60.

In short, it's not the amount of content that I think bothers people (there are equal numbers of 5-man and 40-man endgame instances), it's the time between progressive steps in that content.

Absolutely. Unfortunately, Blizzard already don't seem to have the time to test what content they are releasing - or they don't have the time to listen to numerous bug reports. The EU test realms may as well not exist for all the attention that is paid to them. Trying to turn content patches out even quicker is just going to lead to even more buggy content.
