Recycle old Linden Homes continent regions for reuse elsewhere.

The original Linden Homes continents (aka Nascera continents) are planned to be removed from the Second Life grid. Their Residents have been urged by LL to relocate to newer Bellisseria Linden Homes regions.
If the Residents can be relocated, why not recycle and relocate the old Nascera regions as well?
There are plenty of areas in both Mainland and Bellisseria that could benefit enormously from having additional "new" recycled regions added to them to improve or complete them.
For example, 13 of Nascera's regions could be used to create a water and air transport corridor between Gaeta I and Corsica continents.
Sansara could have it's roads extended into Bay City.
Newbrooke theme in Bellisseria has a massive "hole" void inside it, as well as a missing northwest coastline.
Bellisseria themes Ranch, Mediterranean and Sakura all lack completed land and coastline areas.
Jeogeot continent could have a full perimeter of protected inshore coastline regions added to it, as could Sansara, Heterocera and Satori too.
Unfinished continents such as Gaeta I and Zindra could both be finally completed to their original intended plan by reusing Nascera's regions.
I propose that Nascera continent regions should not simply be deleted. Some regions should obviously be saved for history and sentimental reasons. But what of the other masses of soon to be vacated Nascera regions? Reuse them to improve the rest of Second Life.

Save one of the legacy Linden Home home continents!

I love the aestheric of the old Linden Homes, but I understand wanting to discontinue support of unused land. However, I think there would be enough interest to populate the smallest of the legacy Linden Home continents (although I would hope each architectural section was given its info hub which I'm not sure currently exists for all the sections of that smallest continent). I think there are enough people currently using the legacy homes to fill a substantial portion. And at 512^2m the homes can be made available to Plus members.

Hello Sarah! Thanks for the interesting suggestions.
As has been discussed at the Land and Support User group, the development of Bellisseria is an ongoing process. We currently have 13 styles available, and more planned for the future. The unfinished edges allow for more regions to be added, increasing availability for each theme as needed.
Regarding the planned takedown of the Nascera regions, we are taking measures to preserve some of the themed content from these regions, as it is a part of Second Life's long history.
