AGPL wasn’t valid in existing files. And was reverted. But you’re grossly underestimating how much of AC is new files with AGPL and that’s not being undone any time soon.

The license of AzerothCore is meant to force people to share their fixes about the Blizz-like content, while they are allowed to keep their customisations private.
