Sounds good to me. I want the classic experience, not the classic game.

Meh, opinion polls are exactly that.

The major issue is that Blizzard's representatives in charge of managing the Classic forum as well as directing discussions in other locations are people who play Legion currently and/or never played in 2004 / 2005, and most certainly have not played on current 1.12.1 private servers to have their memory refreshed on the gameplay. So it's a matter of reps being largely ignorant on the topic they're supposed to manage on top of their biases generated from the current game.

The fact that Blizzard is open to the idea of changing the game in areas such as class balance and abilities before even giving players a chance to 'play it like it was' is both stupid and telling. Blizzard is going to screw this up. They are not sticking with their announced intention to make a museum piece of video game history, archived as a success story for others to explore. They're going to apply their tried and true formula of "how can we present this game in a way that interests as many people as possible for cash", a method that drove away a huge portion of their player base midway into WoTLK.
