Wait a minute - it's my understanding scaling applied to outdoor areas. My experience was that once you entered an interior zone, it remained at the level at which you first entered it. It may not be universal, but I used that mechanic to farm low-level black souls in areas I had already been.
I can confirm that I went to at least some interior zones, and had scaling mobs. Perhaps once you completely clear a zone of mobs, it resets the next time you enter it?
At any rate, I prefer a world where things just are what they are: a level 4 zone is a level 4 zone. Now, if there's a good plot mechanic like a major battle or other event and new, stronger enemies are released across the land-- okay. But just knowing that whatever you do, mobs around your level will just happen to be there, ruins the sense of immersion for me.
