It takes project failure to admit your design isn't the best, so yes, it takes subscriber numbers to tumble. Hard.

And then management has to say well whats in the budget for next expac?? If the damage is big enough they consider alternatives. It usually doesn't get past the consideration stage because another top project lead interjects "Yeah but we can make a GREAT expac, that old design sucks donkey dique". It would take 2 WoW expacs failing miserably back to back with huge budgets with 50%+ tumbles in subs to even get classic servers in the conversation imo, and then an additional 2 failed expacs to enter more serious talks about doing classic servers.

And the saga continues from there.

We are very far away from a classic server at this point. SOE sold before taking one drop of any classic money, and to date, they will not do it.
