It wasn’t an assumption. It was based directly on the two replies to the post.
I’m not sure you’re actually fully grasping what you’re asking for though. You’re asking for faster turn-around WITH the same quality seasonal themes as we have currently (which is 100% impossible to ask for). We can either have faster turn-arounds with worse themes, or better themes that last for longer. Asking for both is just outright silly.

dec 19th since end is the 5th
Nope.
Seasons end on Sundays.
Non-emergency patches are on Tuesdays.
Seasons start on Fridays.
We know that S24 ends on Sunday 5th December.
That means the earliest patch 2.7.2 can be pushed live is Tuesday 7th December.
That leaves Friday, 10th or 17th December for the start of S25.
This is getting Ridiculous…

i really had my hopes set on the 10th, lines up so good with upcoming days of vacation and anything closer to Christmas is just - - - to close to Christmas
I’d prefer the 10th as well, for much more selfish and personal reasons.

Highly likely we find out Friday afternoon, but it’s cutting the start pretty close to Xmas. S24 could have been much shorter and have allowed for better management of the time constraints imposed by the holiday season.
Like mentioned by others it will end on Sunday Dec 5th and start Friday Dec 10th. Didn’t get a post PTR impression that Blizzard had any issues to really contend with ample feedback. This should be a interesting season if you want to play something you usually don’t.

I would never use when patch notes is released as a reference, they can just be tardy with it being published close to the start of a season. 
Nobody really knows (as we havent had a blue post about it), we should have had a heads up by now if it would be 10 dec.
what do you plan on starting with? im still torn between DH and Monk, but i think the plan is start monk go hard get the journey done and then gamble a DH and try marauder out
Same here. I usually do the journey with DH. It has some relatively easy set dungeons and has great versatility. Last couple of seasons coupled with Firebird Wiz because it was so strong. So next season could be DH and Monk (or Monk and DH).
The Grinch just informed me… Seasons won’t start till January 7, 2022.
Happy Holidays!

I used both DH and Monk to start, you got a good start if you roll lvl 1 Karlei’s point with shadow being default, or Lord Greenstones fan, you get one guaranteed as you know. Once you get 2 pc you can play up to T10. Sunwuko start is not as fast, weapons are harder to get initially. You hoping to roll crudest bloods at lvl 1, (but skill requires further leveling to use) but without it Rivera Dancers is OK, then pox faults is very useful if get it with you chest reward from challenge rift. Comparably based on all the odds shadow DH has been the fastest to lvl up, versus a bit worst odds of gearing for monk. But I plan on shadow - > Marauder, and kit Inna Monk second using DH to get shards. Then the seasons Soul Shards gotten early can make S25 1-70 and beyond a lot easier with leveling. Soon you should be able to play between the two classes easily.
look at d3resource com/seasons
Starting 5 days later after the previous season has ended is pretty common. Last 2 seasons did just that.
BTW how often does blizzard let us know well in advanced anymore?

Right, so you could be right, or you could be wrong about s25 start, aka a guesstimate, nobody KNOWS
edit: seems you were right on your guesstimate.
