Any dearth of old world quests was completely solved (and then some) by the increase in quest experience gained.

I only hit about half the zones while going 1-60 recently, and didn't even do much instancing for experience at all.

In fact, I even skipped any quests that looked like too much running around, because leveling is so fast and easy now that you can just do the quick-hit quests in each zone you go to and you still end up skipping a lot of zones.

Converting the elites to non-elites was just overkill.

I don't see the conversion of the elites as an addition to the larger quest experience but a response to it. Like you say with the added quest experience you can pretty much soar through the 1-60 content. If they left the elite quests as is nobody would ever do them anymore. by lowering them to non elite it just makes them viable leveling quests as opposed to content gauranteed to be skipped.
