What it helps, I think, is the 'middle class' of GK. Assuming we attribute 'class' to number of hours, which I think is relatively applicable, this addition will be really a huge help to those members with between, lets say, 250 and 1200 hours. That's a BIG portion of the population, and to please them ensures you'll have oldbies and mega oldbies alike in the future. These are also the people who are active in kingdoms, helpful to noobs, and generally do things on Kingdoms besides idle in the trade house. This will stimulate their gameplay and keep them out of the trade room for longer. (I also happen to be a member of that time group!)

The availability of items previously thought to be unattainable by this group will give them much more reason to stick around to promote the game.
