Actually when you mentioned the new skill capes, pet halos and such, you told us Jagex really care about existing players too, although they are not the focus of this FSW update.
It is like updating Burthorpe and Lumbridge. RS3 has released many New Player Experience updates and changed starting areas many times. Of course, the main focus is to attract more new players, but don't forget existing players go there occasionally too, although not for the leveling content.
As for OSRS, they have no endgame, let alone rewarding endgame. Players who have joined that game in recent years won't waste 10 years to catch up. Look at all those Leagues, DMM, GIM, LMS and all those new game modes they proposed. They have virtually no level and gear requirements, rendering everything we earn in the core OSRS game meaningless. That's also why OSRS Jmods don't talk about these new game modes now because they know they will be bombarded with questions on how are they not killing the core OSRS content and existing playerbase.
