Nexon's decline in traffic

Removing areas and simplifying things could be an effort to buy themselves growth room without having to worry about increasing minimum hardware requirements.

Same could be said for areas that aren't activated but still run behind the scenes, right? Happyville, VPQ, sunday market, coke town, etc. Areas that the company doesn't plan to make available yet are still in the data for some unknown reason. They still run in the background we just can't get to it, consuming resources.

Really interesting thought though. If not for the sake of making more room for content they should at least be removing data from the .wz for the sake of a smaller client and for optimization and whatnot.
