It was a terrible design on the original developers part ... which is exactly why they fixed it in Luclin to where you could still get the old content even after the Sleeper woke. With that fix I don't see it as a blemish, and in fact I think it's kind of cool that there's a way a highly motivated and organized group of players could have a permanent effect on the world/story.

Here I think there will be an entirely different solution. Green/recycle won't even get Velious and the Sleeper until the server only has a year or so left. It will probably take a few months after Velious is released before anyone can kill it, and then once they do it won't be long before the whole thing starts over and their great "permanent" accomplishment is erased.
