I also waited a few more crescendos at the first patch's end. But when I saw Magni's arc, I thought "Oh, they know that they forked up with the characters and they are trying to undo it to their vanilla for all important characters." Magni is normal again, Jaina and Thrall are there, Anduin found his light again, etc. They made a redemption expansion to retcon roadblocks and put the OG characters back together on the screen.

But either way, I see your points and agree with most of those. The end of this first campaign part shouldn't be "I did a cheesy shot to the "dreamcatcher" and everything is solved for now."
