I think the key thing is, What if we don't want to buy the x-pak? I'm sure there are still people playing even now that don't have TBC.

What if I don't want to get to 80 for another 6 months? What if I just want to do 70 BG's?
Bliz has said in the past that they refuse to balance the game based on old content. These were blue posts from ages ago, so I don't know if I can provide links, but I'm sure no one is going to question the truth of that. There's nothing stopping you from staying 70. They just won't balance the game around it.
