I am baffled! Where is Blizzard heading with these XP changes everywhere? Do they really see a possible uptick in new players from this? They could come up with some other gate to increase the time played on Allied Races.

All new players get one boost as part of the most current expansion. This only impacts people who want multiple leveled characters. Specifically, making allied races rarer. It doesn't necessarily presage any new sale items. The first few alts, the speed isn't a big deal, it's "new" content. But repeating the same content over and over gets stale for those who want many alts. It seems fairly obvious that this is a coordinated change. Slower leveling is a desired goal and the obvious reason is allied races.
