What if Expansions were Free

What if the content in past and new expansions were available to everyone for free, while the price of a season's pass was increased to $15. I can easily see myself paying the extra for the season's pass due to the fact the season's pass unlocks an extra activity and will allow me to target farm loot more efficiently. While I could play all the content with my friends who don't want to pay for the newest expansion, instead of finding new friends who do own the expansions. People who pay for the season's pass could also have all Dungeons and Raids drop Pinnacles, while free players would only have the newest Dungeon and Raid drop Pinnacles; giving more reason to buy the season's pass. Can also make it a mandatory thing to play trials (similar to how owning the newest expansion is a requirement right now). This suggestion is a bit more far fetched but, what if we could trade loot for silver, or for other loot with other players (similar to Warframe). I can imagine a lot of people who would love the option of buying silver to then buy godrolls from other players of weapons they don't want to grind for. Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.

Forsaken and (especially) Shadowkeep fit these well since Forsaken is already losing about 33% of its content next season and much of the focus will shift to Witch Queen (with the Dreaming City more than likely being finished up in a season rather than an expansion). Shadowkeep loses its relevance right after the campaign is finished since 2/3 of its endgame activities lost their pinnacle loot and the reissued gear rolls aren't the best. That all said, that's just my opinion on the matter, because I don't want to pay an additional $5 a season to continue playing content I already bought as a one-time purchase.

This would also indirectly empower cheaters because they could gain another source of monetary income this way outside of the current paid carries/recoveries BS.
