blizzard appears to going back to what they did in BC (58) and WOTLK (68) with 2 levels lower than previous game/expac max.
as of now azerite is not going away, blizzard said when you step into SL they go away, which may mean they just go inactive in the new content.
once you get a player to max level with the storyline completed and unlocked, your alts starting SL are able to shortcut straight to covenants and start right into everything faster. will a 48/49 be able to double dip is the question? if azerite is active on older content, and a few SL covenant abilities/passives are useable thru out WOW, this could make for some seriously powered 48/49s in the open world, and perhaps BGs. on top of that it appears that a 49 with XP off, may be able to content dip deep enough into SL to acquire 90-100 range item level gear
