I see lots of offtopic in this thread, which is fine, people will always rant about such things.

Since you are asking a pretty narrow sample of people, you are unlikely to get many responses. But for what it's worth, here's mine.
Your concern seems to be the zoning issues, ID bugs and server crashes that could occur, irrespective of the spawn time of quartermaster, which is already creating a bottleneck.
I believe that although such issues might exist, they will not be worse than anything that occurred on retail servers when content patches with new raid instances. The problems you describe existed on retail vanilla and experiencing such problems during progress, especially on the first day(s) of new content, was a regular thing.
One can argue that, as these problems were bugs or server issues, attempting to recreate them, either by neglect or intent, borders dementia, as it is
clearly better to release content without them. However, one has to consider the fact that retail raiding guilds had to deal with these problems by planning and adapting to them as they occurred. In fact many of the world firsts throughout vanilla and TBC were determined by who could adapt to some bugged mechanic, server lag or exploit and not that much with skill or preparation.
Whether or not such must be the case on Nostalrius is for the server management to decide. The community should share its feedback, as it is doing already, for management has already shown it listens to the feedback of the community (most recent example being the PvE server). But at this point it's all water under the bridge - nothing we do will change what is coming, all we can do is plan for it and adapt to any issues that arise on Saturday evening.
