Why did devs make non-classic , non-rotating hot zones?

[Gustoo]

The ZEM's are as classic as possible, one would need to provide better data on the ZEM's to indicate a change should be made.

The non classic we are now experiencing is the 22 year old non classic high detailed knowledge of the game we are playing. The nearly comprehensive wiki and ZEM details using methods that most people didn't even know about in 1999.

So what you are really asking for is a non classic solution to a non classic problem. I fully support NON classic rotating ZEM's though I would do it in a classic way, with a vague reference to a particular zone and the changes in the feeling in the air...ETC.
