Controversial: Augmentation might be a bad idea if set to 25 and later

While this is valid, there's a sorta Pascal's Wager going on here.

Since we don't know, it could be either big changes or small. If someone was only interested in this game under the condition that the changes were large, then they would want to give feedback in that direction early, because what's the point of doing anything else?

There's no need to wait and see, for that sort of person, because they don't intend to play the game if the augments are just random small changes. We've already seen multiple such threads on these forums.

Intrepid still hasn't provided certain pieces of information about how specific things will work, but the same way there are some people who won't play the game if the open world PvP gets diluted, there are many who won't play if the class identities are diluted. So they don't really need the information, their position is 'If this is the path you choose I no longer care so you never needed my feedback'.

And therefore they give feedback because 'the only Ashes they can see that they care about, is the one in which the problem exists', and they want to address it early (making no claims about what @Kesthely actually feels here, but you've seen enough other posters and threads on the matter to know what I mean)

And if it's the case that the leveling process is just a way to pass time before endgame, levels 1-25 will be a simplistic cakewalk, changing to Spellsword is 'basically the same as Weaponmaster' and it's your fault if you somehow didn't think to be a Battlemage, and so on, that's easy to explain to potential players.

But that's still just ' I don't think this game is going to be this way, so your concerns are pointless'.

Aren't some of y'all relatively high/top players in other games? Have you never 'had the irritation of practicing a character for months only to get nerfed so bad you had to change to and practice a new one'? (I wish there was a different way to ask this question because I know it is just gonna get that dismissive 'it's not the same' answer, but I can't be bothered, so I'll accept whatever comes)
