Watched the Developer Q&A - next to last question was about leveling alts, and if BfA would be more alt friendly.

I was happy they actually took the question, and do agree with much of what he said - Legion and BfA are alt friendly (specifically around account wide unlocks). And his sentiment was that if you are leveling an alt because you have reached a plateau on your main, they dont want to make leveling an alt too easy otherwise you are right back in the same position again.

And he said - and I quote "if you are looking to level your 17th alt I dont really care". Poor choice of words as it denigrates a specific category of players that tend to have greater game longevity - the "completionist" type players that wants to try everything.

I posted on the WoW forums https://us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/20761928053

Just wanted to share with this community if you didnt see the Q&A
