Raising realm caps - unsustainable

Seriously. It’s no harder then changing some numbers on your cloud of choice console and hitting submit button. Voila

I don’t get this. They literally said it is technically possible for them to raise the caps.

While we are able to fit several times more players on a single realm in 2019 than was the case in 2006, we are not going to raise that cap any further, even though we have the technical capacity to do so.

This right here is the answer, you could have 300000 on the server potentially, but the game itself is only designed to handle about 3k, meaning it would screw with everything.

This definitely sounds like the reason. You can have 3k people on a server at one time and have a stable experience…or 300000 people on a server and have serious game play problems.
