If assume it's only one FOTM instance
I hope that at the very least, ArenaNet finds some way to include the lore that would have been part of the fractal that loses.
Or they just release that fractal some time later instead. It feels like a huge waste to not do those two fractals.
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.
They have two potentially great fractal ideas and instead we get a return of two we already had in game, one that I hated (Aetherblade).
This is one of those kitten ed-if-you-do… cases. Just a handful of weeks ago, everyone was going crazy that they “need to” re-implement Aetherblade and Facility as Fractals.
Plus hey, at least we get more interesting boss mechanics that way. The aetherblade bosses were awesome.

Agreed, though the last boss could of used more progressive cannon phases instead of increasing the time. Like each phase adds another cannoneer to fire with each phase. I’d say add phases based on time, but that’s opening a floodgate of 4w+1m that we desperately do not need after CoF1 bull crap.
Anet said that the possibility of creating whichever fractal loses has a very unlikely high chance of being created, but sometimes RNG is kind so maybe in 2014 we could see it re-emerge as possible content.
