As someone working actively on a 735 server for like something over a year I'll happily answer questions if there are any.

If you're talking about custom maps then that's a clear yes. We have two custom maps, one is 20x20 ADTs and one is I think 16x16 or something.

And I don't really know what you mean by texture scaling... guess higher textures for gameobjects? Haven't tried that yet tbh, would prolly need some m2 editing aswell.
To be clear: I am not a worldbuilder whatsoever, I have some friends building the maps, I'm mainly there for coding issues like fixing GoMove to our needs. We also have a mountscript (you know, where the mounts spawn after you dismount n stuff), some gameobject scripts like ladders and lootboxes and some more stuff for making the life of a GM and our players alot easier.
But currently I'm kinda stuck at downporting stuff from BFA and up, bc I'm not that much of a file manipulator... need to get into that more I guess.

If you've managed to get GoMove working with 7.3.5, would you be willing to share? It's been a hard life without it. ?
Is it still noggit you guys are using to build maps? I wasn't sure if it was compatible with later cores? My friend made some awesome maps, too, in 3.3.5.

In MoP Blizz introduced a new tool or option for textures and that is texture scalling, this mean that you can scale the actual size of texture on the terrain. This may sound weird, but this way Blizz created most of MoP+ zones, and thus achieving the unique looking style of mountains that is literally impossible in WoTLK or Cata.

Take a look at Kun-Lai Summit zone in MoP and note the mountains.
P. S. : I think I have already seen somebody in this community playing around with MoP+ content and I believe he was using this texture scalling, so I wonder how did he approach this.

And yes, we still use noggit (NoggitQT I think it is?) because by now there are a few ways to convert those 335 ADTs to Legion standard.

It's not exactly smooth scaling but if you have like 3 different sizes to one texture that should be at least something, right?
