Once you suckle from the Kedge teet, it’s hard to go back. I think people enjoy ezmode leveling, so when you have to worry about dispelling mobs and keeping EB up, it turns some off. Kedge is a great zone, it’s typically undercamped, so if you show up with a solid group you can help yourself to almost anything you want.
