Back in Vanilla if you had oldschool Naxx gear, it meant your guild actually had some skills. Your gear proved you could defeat hard content.
Now everyone and their brother has look-alike welfare epics.
Let's build a gap between scrubs and achievers.
There is; They're challenge modes, give great looking gear (provided you can get all 9 in gold), and a sweet mount. Blizzard is not nerfing these at all, either
Same with certain titles (Very few "Delver of the Vaults" on my server), among other things (Heroic weapon/armor models having different colors, etc). Besides, who cares if they can get it now; I got my T12H back when it was current content and still use it for transmog. Does it lessen my achievement? Not in the slightest. It's old content no one cares about anyways.

On the other side of the coin, this is part of why some heroic raiders feel angry at some players. Not all heroic raiders are like this (usually only the very good, or very bad heroic raiders raid that much, and the good ones only as long as they're progressing).
My previous guild raids 3 days a week, 3 hours a night and is top 50 for US 25 (and among the best in the world for their time/efficiency bracket). If that isn't "skill," it's certainly something.
