Because they were hoping it wouldnt get to a critical point. So now that its at critical on one server, they might as well add for both instead of repeating the process later.

You should only see the queue at peak times, when demand is higher than the hardware supports.
Wow. If Matt replied to this then this problem is really serious!
I hope both devs and players will overcome this

Unless there really hasn't been an influx in players and this is a tactic to convince people that ESO has a growing community in order to convince them to buy the game...
On a more serious note: It's nice seeing a post from Matt huzzah for communication!

Even better, communicate this before the situation gets bad enough that you spring a queue on players with an incomplete explanation. I mean, sure, players will always have questions, but this post has so much information that really deserved to be in the original announcement.

While I agree with your sentiment. Just playing devils advocate, the issue may have been something the community managers were not comfortable or familiar enough with to convey. Matt may have been busy with other things and not have been able to post this yesterday.
Thanks for the update Matt, good to know what's been happening and what the plan is going forward.
I hate to add a negative comment to my post but if the cause of some of the EU performance issues have been known since January why couldn't we get a statement as to why earlier?
There have been A LOT of threads from angry PC EU players over the last few months which were met with silence, and only now when the situation has become critical do we know what the cause was.
I think a lot of people might have been appeased if they had known the reasons sooner.
Any way I don't want to focus too much on the negative but I wanted to add a bit of critic, especially with ZOS talking about wanting to improve communication this year.
Onwards to upgraded servers and many new friends to play the game with!
