The features of this pack have a couple of red flags over it...
We already have lifestyles, sentiments, wants & fears (unless you have turned them off), neighborhood stories, random invites, etc. and now we will get key choices, milestones and midlife crises, I worry a lot that these will be just as intrusive as all the other features we already have.
So yeah, I'm skeptical how well this will all work.

The relationship chemistry concerns me a little. I have enjoyed actually being able to make decisions about who my sims date and marry without the complications of an attraction system like in Sims2. All the descriptions talk about friendships rather than romance, but they can't usually get romantic without some friendship first. I've been working to marry all the premades into my families for a while and I don't want those decisions taken away.
Hopefully that feature will come with a toggle, but even after the patch my sims still have fear moodlets when wants and fears are turned off so my faith in toggles has declined somewhat.
These are my fears. I really want to buy this EP but all these features (key choices, milestones, midlife crises and the obnoxious return of "chemistry") feels like an intrusion on my play style. I really hope we can turn it off. I'll wait for the Livestream to confirm but I'm not feeling good about it. I don't want random firings, random family showing up at the door and not leaving and I definitely don't want chemistry ruining my plans for my sims.
Also, whoever does the marketing/copywriting/whatever should stop saying "it will deepen gameplay." At this point, just put out the product and let the players decide whether it does that or not. Proclaiming it - especially to a community that is already overwhelmingly negative about the game - will just make everyone scrutinize it harder and make them even more upset if it doesn't reach their standards (which, realistically, it probably never will).
