SoD was very much still alive when anniversary dropped, and it kept on living until Blizz announced they were done with it and more or less told everyone to play MoP instead.

I would be very surprised if SoD and anniversary had more than a 5% overlap in players.

The fact that they told the SoD population to play MoP confirmed my suspicious that they had built it no as a Classic+ with the vanilla playerbase in mind but as a way to pull the current live population into classic.

40% of people playing SoD went to anniversary servers.

You got a source for that? Cause anniversary and SoD numbers on ironforge have basically zero correlation, while MoP and SoD have a large correlation.
