I don't think they ever will, unfortunately. Which means that no new player is ever going to see the likes of Castrum Meridianum or The Praetorium as they were originally intended. Not that they were super difficult, of course, but you can completely ignore mechanics for the most part these days due to how poorly they scale.
Compare it to the likes of The Vault and it's disappointing. The Vault scales brilliantly - the last boss is still a threat since even with better gear you can still count on dying if you mess up even once given how intense the fight can be.
Thankfully it wasn't made easier - I was a tad worried that it would be, especially given what happened to Steps of Faith.
