Which I completely understand. I got frustrated with that myself, and actually I'm still in that boat on my main (Warlock). I think it's a very valid argument, and I see why Blizz did what they did, but I think there are other options to address that situation that still leave choice of xmog more based on what you actually have equipped (such as doing a simple pass of "2h axe was BiS last tier ? make it a polearm this tier", etc, etc, etc.)
