Why have a leveling system at all for the next expansion? Clearly too much for players to do another 10 levels on their main character when the community would rather shortcut with their credit cards.

Buying a level 90 is obviously something for players who already have played 1-90 before and don't care to do it again + something that will allow new players to catch up to their established buddies more quickly. It does not in any way suggest that current level 90s "can't handle" leveling up in a new expansion. Blizzard makes money in the process, but they ARE in the business of, ya know, making money (and, somewhat connected to that, keeping customers happy).
These forums are full of people bitching that leveling in wow is too easy, but then when Blizzard offers players a way to skip the part of the game that you think is retarded, you complain about that too? Not to mention the whole "it's ok to use RL money to incidentally obtain p99 xp pots, but if you pay for levels in wow "OMFG I CAN'T BELIEVE WOW WOULD DO SOMETHING SO HEINOUS!!!"? Lol.
I mean, I agree with the sentiment that WoW isn't for me anymore. But just because the game isn't what it used to be, or it isn't what YOU are looking for, doesn't mean it hasn't made decisions that made some sense (dungeon finder wasn't Blizzard secretly trying to kill MMO community; it was a fix for people playing on low-pop realms and them trying to bring more convenience to players... yeah it kinda was a double-edged sword, but what isn't?) or that it isn't still fun for a lot of people.
