I've wondered this too. I distinctly remember turning in CB/DF belts and pads, bandit sashes etc. and getting considerably more exp back in the actual Classic era. So the exp values on P99 are definitely not Classic, but I'd assumed they had some reason to nerf?

It's an unclassic fix on top of an unclassic fix. They "fixed" issues from people complaining there wouldn't be enough mobs at launch by unclassically improving spawn rates. Once they did that, they "had to" to unclassically nerf certain quests, because otherwise people would complain about everyone using those quests to level unclassicaly fast.
So in short, the devs had a choice between A) ignoring whiners (and letting people fight over spawns at launch .... or, hindsight being 20/20, starting with Teal at launch), or B) again ignoring whiners (and letting people level a little faster than they should) ... or C) making Green unclassic from the start.
They chose option C, which
with the benefit of hindsight seems like the wrong choice to me personally ... but you certainly didn't hear me complaining about improved spawn rates when Green launched either
