I'd say there are valid concerns related to its release. Releasing it too early despite the clamoring for "we'll just play it and test it for you" will create doubts/naysaying (pets suck here! backstab is broken! waste of tiem!) and worse, give those who test it early insights into bugs.

Let's be honest, the more time you have to play, the more broken shit you'll find and I can't say I'd count on the usual suspects to report every bug they find.

I'd hope if they go the testing route those who test will recognize this is an opportunity to have a box with a healthy and regular population. You have to wager the "lulz" versus the value in creating something strong and lasting. We know what has killed boxes previous and that we want a serious pvp emu. Hopefully that will be a driving force for some effort and honesty in testing.

Personally, I'd rather wait it out and for all the big and little things to be fixed on p99 (blue) then go forward with the pvp box.
This is true, they do need to work a good amount of the stuff out before allowing us fefs online. I'm very worried about how this will turn out. There has been no real EQ PvP since like pop-era live :/

I tried out VZTZ but didn't stay very long at all because of how low the population was. Also there was not much room for casual playing; if you didn't wanna rush to max level and get best gear there was no one to PK or exp with. If this '99red thing doesn't pan out I may have to accept that MMO gaming will never be fun again.
