Nobody really knows how many F2P players will disappear because of the wipe.
Nobody really knows how many F2P players have/will Sub because of the wipe.
Nobody really knows how many lapsed/returning players have returned because of the wipe.
Subbed players, having been threatened with total wipe, are feeling a little schadenfreude concerning the F2P players. If there have to be sacrifices to ensure the continuation of the game we all love, that really sucks but that's life.
One thing we can be sure of - if some kind of F2P scheme remains after the wipe, there will be lots of F2P players in the future. I hope so because the game needs them. Sure people will try out the game and then drift away, but most subbed players started out as F2P.
Is it fair? No. Is it necessary? Yes. Is it going to kill the game? HELL NO.
