I genuinely don't believe that, no. If they had said "recoding the AH doesn't slow down ancients," sure, that's two different kinds of work and thus two different types of jobs. But new breeds, whether modern or ancient, are both art jobs. Unless they're going to just cut back on staff if they don't have ancients, then I don't see any way that they're not diverting at least some of their work flow potential to ancients.
You really think 3 poses, and a handful of genes for those is what's slowing down the introduction of a new modern... which needs every single piece of apparel and modern gene redrawn for it? If they don't release something, the site will not have a playerbase. People will leave.
I wouldn't be shocked if there is another modern fully drawn right now slowly going through that process. The modern concept itself is the problem. Not the ancients that keep the site alive and active in the interim.
