Lavas and zaps will still be reserved for the most hardcore farmers, or else for people who've been playing a really long time. Whether the total price tag is 750 MM resources or 675 MM resources is a pretty moot point if you consider how much effort goes into both of those numbers.
Further, consider the fact that a lot of people are held back by walls: they remain TH8 or TH9 forever trying to finish skulls/legos/lavas. Giving a slight break to this group of players might allow them to reach TH9 or TH10 sooner than they otherwise would. Or it might even get them to TH10 when they would've otherwise quit.
I think it's an overall win for the entire game -- and especially the TH10s -- if more players actually become TH10s. More fish in the proverbial sea. More targets. Or whatever cliche you like.
Lavas and zaps will still remain a bragging right. They'll still take a boatload of time/energy/money. Just not quite as much.
And in the end, we still don't even know if that leak is real.
