Tunnel would be completely different and everything would be shittier. Convenience isn't always best. Much of the draw of classic EQ is precisely its inconvenience; for people who like to delay gratification, accomplishing something in EQ is that much more rewarding because of the process involved.

EQ is like edging for six hours and then finally having a tantric, transcendent orgasmic experience, versus the modern MMO where you nut in like 10 mins and it's meh
Not classic? almost every player who didn't box other characters 50+ in classic had an EC mule boxed instead, or friend/guildmate doing it. If you want to make some kind of completely arbitrary argument about the accomplishment of sitting on your ass and drooling on your keyboard as you hit your EC macro button that's fine, but not classic? puhleez.
