from what i see 25 man raiding will be left for LFR and 10 mans will become the standard for progression raiding as it is right now. i dont see why they would remove 25 man raids if the fights are close to the same and the real difference is how much health the boss has.

The difference between 10 and 25 (in terms of experiance) is much more then 25mans having more health.

One of the big problems with the current set up is that they have to cram a 10man raid into a 25man environment. Take a look at the TBC 10man only raids Kara and ZA. One of the things that was awesome about many of those fights was that the 10man format fit the room, and Blizzard was able to limit the space available to the 10man raider. Try and use those same mechanics in the current 10mans and it doesn't work because they are in a 25man sized room. To be fair, while the environmental size tends to favor 10mans it does cut the other way some times. One of the main reasons hagara is so much easier on 25man is because 25mans have so many more people.
