I see... but I think I didn't phrase this quite correctly.
From what I understood from Aristeaus's video, they planned on implementing cross server sage world and then did the poll, and then when it was shot down they decided to do it anyway because they planned it before. He also said that for some reason they couldn't cancel stuff.
What's so wrong with cancelling stuff or changing that plan? If I've scheduled out my day and something goes wrong, there's nothing wrong with changing my schedule.
Does that still mean that they just don't want to work then? Looking back, I'm not sure if the answer changed at all...
