Should I level a character now or wait for the shadowlands changes in the leveling system?

Hey everyone, I'm relatively new to the wowhead.com forums, first time posting here in this section, and I had a question
They say that leveling in shadowlands to level 50 will be 60-70% faster than it is now, but heirlooms won't their bonus experience as they do now.
Conversely, with the ongoing "Winds of wisdom buff" which increases experience gains by 100% and I imagine a character wearing full heirlooms will get a sizeable experience bonus on top of that. (I think this is 45% without the two heirloom rings, which I don't have, with both rings it comes to 55%)
I'm no mathematician but the 100% + 45% faster leveling actually sounds faster than the speed we will level in Shadowlands.
So is it actually quicker to level a toon now than in shadowlands?
Any opinions or advice would be appreciated, thanks in advance. :)

You've got two questions here:
1. Should I level a character now, or after Shadowlands launches?
and
2. Is leveling in Shadowlands faster than now?
I don't know the answer to #2, but the answer to #1 depends on what you want out of the game. If you're one of those folks that only wants endgame content and isn't interested in lower level content, then the answer to #2 will answer #1.
However, if that's not what you're after... what do you enjoy most about the game?

Well, to be fair, I do enjoy levelling characters, but I think the experience will be more rewarding in shadowlands because even if one puts aside the issue of levelling speed, in shadowlands we can level in one expansion, allowing for a better story experience.

It depends how you are leveling.
If you are a tank or heal you can easy spam Dungeons all the way to 120 and never have to do a "normal" quests beside the first 15 lvl.
If you are a dd you have to quest. So even here it depends if you like storys or are just in for the fast leveling. Some areas and Expansions are better for fast level but have not real Story to them and other areas are great for the story but bad XP wise
