So I was wondering why it seems like a lot of old timers are now going to WCPP instead of BW/Q. Is it just for different scenery?

Well the idea for me was to see places that were a bit more remote, a change of scenery and seeking out solitude.  

Bottom line ... it is more remote, the scenery is probably better in Quetico and this year solitude was disappointing ... easily as many people as I ever see on a Quetico trip.  In addition, there were sections that didn't seem so remote because of the fly-in traffic and the existence of cabins on some lakes.

All-in-all, I'd say that last year's trip was much more satisfying with respect to my 3-goals.  Don't get me wrong.  Even with the "comedy route" of mishaps I experienced, I still had a good trip!
