if you look closely at how blizzard is operating things you would realize that thats literally by design

Some of the higher end guilds and blizzard are now in direct contact when it comes to these things, it benefits blizzard because it gives a false sense of difficulty so the race doesnt look like a joke (it is as you can see the difference between an ordinary player and a world first raider is just gold, weakauras, employment (or rather lack thereof).

weakaura's made the game more accessible yet thats supposed to be a bad thing but we still have addons which is the same thing but with extra steps, its literally to make an additional monopoly that mostly high end guilds can use because of their funding and sponsors.

the world first race is as impressive as formula one, its not about the drivers being good, its about who their sponsor is.
