Just a guess, but I'd wager the plan right now is for T4 to be the ONLY tiered set in BC. The plan is for yearly expansions from here on out. Think about it - each tier adds about 10 levels to the items. Wouldn't it make more sense for the players to go up 10 levels as well? The disconnect between clvl and ilvl has caused a number of problems that is forceing them to make fundamental changes to the itemization, I would be suprised if they want to do that every time there is an expansion. Especially if those expansions are yearly.
Now if the talent trees are messed up and require a class by class review, dramatically extending the duration of BC, they will need to add new content, new items, and probably T5.
