Which one sounds more likely to you though?

Devs put in a currently unusable feature.

Devs update the TP.

I know which I'd put my money on.

Maybe they are just trying to push towards feature parity so that the Nutaku dev team will only have to worry about event management and such? So we'll see this added, then maybe next maintenance we'll see the new UI, and then finally we might see Nutaku take over with a new event?
