I'm not sure you've thought this through. What do you think needs to happen for every new tier of trinkets to be obviously and strictly better than the last?
Either A) you make all the entry tier items terrible and uninspired, to keep the power low; then add equally weak but slightly better versions gradually, arriving at powerful effects only in the last tier(s).
Or B) you make every new tier RIDICULOUSLY more powerful so that it wins even against old Titanforges; in which case you have the opposite of what you're complaining about, namely that any LFR version of the new trinkets beat out mythic ones from the last tier (been there before, people hated it).
There really is no middle ground, largely because of TF. Previously you could (at least in theory) balance trinkets so the new versions are better, but not by a huge margin; now the ilvl range is so wide that it's impossible to fine-tune for the entire range.
And all that is just the inherent problem of power creep across tiers, saying nothing of the fact that many people LIKE old tiers to remain relevant content. People in my guild are excited to roll new alts because they know they'll easily find good runs for lower raid tiers to gear them through. That's only possible because of the new system. Who ever bothered to go back to Highmaul once BRF came out? Let alone HFC? Right now we have high-end raiders regularly spamming EN Normal/HC speed clears just for legs and AP, and NH for TF drops. More people doing raids looks like a GOOD thing to me.
