Vanilla server (run on private servers (pservers)) is actually a rather popular niche. This is bringing that experience back. How it does at-large will be interesting to see. The other argument is that Blizzard tends to do remastered releases of games ~15 years after their original release, and guess what, it's been 15 years. So it fits into that bucket as well. While it's definitely a grab at more players, people are also asking for it. Go poking around to see how much people are excited about this thing (there are various podcasts, https://countdowntoclassic.com/ https://countdowntoclassic.com/ being one I've listened to).
