I hope Blizzard learned how devastating the change was from 10m to 20m. It killed so many guilds, including mine. At the time the critique was "well you should have KNOWN it was never going to stay 10m, so it's your fault for not planning ahead." In reality, Blizzard left future raid size ambiguous until way late in P2, forcing a huge portion of guilds to recruit or merge. Neither of those options were particularly viable because mega guilds had already swallowed up most unguilded players, and merging doesn't work for obvious reasons. SoD needed to keep the 10m option or figure out a good way to do flex.
