I'd agree that its the first time e on its own is not fueling things for a while.
Despite the growing chasm between the present and everyone's honeymoon with E, and even if people aren't rolling at parties anymore, I feel like E permanently re-wired everyone's brains in a way that is still strongly felt in all post-rave music today, including grime, but probably more obviously in dubstep. Maybe it's just the optimism about reconnecting with the bliss that is disappearing in grime.
