That being said, I am about to hit my 2nd gold trait on my mage, I am not a 2200+ player but I push competitively as i can, and while my 2nd gold trait would be nice and will be nice it is not what is holding me back, in fact 2400+ players are only about 2-5 traits ahead of where I am at.
I agree it would be nice to have artifacts maxed out, but you are playing an MMO, not a moba. PvPing on alts (awful honor grind aside) is in a much better spot then when you felt you shouldn't even que for skirmishes until you grinded an entire set of epic PvP gear.
TLDNR: I doubt 99% of the player base is good enough that their artifact lvl is what is holding them back from being good at pvp
