Player agency should matter.
The window of opportunity is near to fix covenant system. 
My fun will suffer because the ability I want and the covenant I want do not mix. 2 core concepts of the expansion are at odds with each other and cause a feel bad situation that has nothing to do with my parse.

An agonizing choice is a meaningful one. It’s impact full because it hurts. You are telling them, they are on the right path. 
Why do you want this?
Great post on reddit about the 1% Myth https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/igxuv5/covenants_the_1_and_minmaxers_a_data_driven/
I’ve had Covid most will survive it . It is not the end of the world disease you and others make it out to be .
It is a disease that comes from the same family of viruses as the common cold . Do we need to shut down society because of the common cold. We will never get rid of it . So do we just stop living and crawl into our little holes and be scared the rest of our lives ?
Because that appears to be what you and others like you think.
As for masks I do wear mine but if I’m not inside a business and out in the open , you better believe it’s off.
I’m not a fan of the games development path over the last 12 years.
There were development paths and choices made that led us to where we are.
Every system being load-outs, action mmo combat pace, ect.
This is the first part of a large course correction to roll back some of those missteps, that will no doubt displace gamers like yourself.
So you are right to cry havoc and let loose the dogs. The end of the wow you know, is in fact written on the wall.
Can you tell me what we are returning to?
12 Years ago i could easily swap specs for a pittance of gold and carry around two sets of gear to be BIS in two areas of content.
Playing gold to swap covenant abilities sounds great.
A square is technically still a rectangle, but a rectangle is not a square.
A meaningful choice doesn’t somehow lose its meaning because it isn’t agonizing. A choice doesn’t have to result in loss in one regard to gain meaning in another.
We get it, “make big man hurt so me feel good!!!”, but this won’t make getting into harder content easier. It’ll make it harder for people without a foot in the door, unnecessarily.

I’ve never said either of those things were desirable.
To be perfectly honest, it’s safe to chalk half of his statements up to trolling.
Just another person who wants back the glory days of the “harder game” that forced you into “painful choices” [when it never did any such thing].

Yep, as someone who has spent 600,000 gold to change my azerite traits before, I am ok with this.

in another game i and others used to be unpaid volunteer lackey forum moderators and in game ‘demi-god’ helpers. It was something to do when we got bored with the game and the ‘bugs (features)’ got so bad and unfixed and drove us crazeee. Getting out and helping other players, even if you don’t have 'god mode" or special powers can be an alternative to complaining or asking others to boycott or take legal action. I know some who bought stock with voting options and tried to take a board seat or get a minute to vent with Powers That Be executives and game devs. Others started more failed under funded games… /sigh the ‘matrix’ and deep immersion virtual reality overseen by god level A.I. is almost here with zero lag. You will BE the game. /group hug.
I dun get it, must be troll. Hur hur. You’ve said that about 9 times now.
Hello,
Please advise.

That would imply a misunderstanding on my part of what you want.
Nah, that’d be too easy. Not enough agony and timegating to that, gotta lock it behind some arbitrary systems borne of more recent times while praising “ye good ole days”.
