This game take's WoW's strategy of elongating content and kicks it to such a high degree that it may as well be on a completely different dimensional plane. You really shouldn't try and compare the two as though they are remotely similar, because they are not. WoW doesn't lock classes behind the entire span of old world content. WoW doesn't even lock zones! You could get to Dalaran as a level 1 if you wanted. Now, I don't play WoW anymore, but I'm pretty sure they haven't retroactively changed any of that.
I also disagree that the 1-character sub (and the ability to do everything on one character... well, everything except be a different race) justifies these kinds of decisions. SE offers 8 character slots, and you pay more than the people utilizing the 1 character. But then they're going to laugh in your face despite you giving them additional money? Haha! Not cool.
For what it's worth, the prospect of not only being forced to complete the MSQ but also having to level through an entire class that I don't want to be in order to play what I want (Au Ra AST) was enough for me to decide NOT to re-subscribe.
