What I hate about the current system (and its been getting worse with each tier to be honest although the change to the way tier gear works in T13 was a step in the right direction) is that it makes you feel, as a raider, that you need to keep farming heroics constantly to get raiding gear. That was a boring grind and it also devalued raid gear - Raid gear is meant to be special. It is meant to be gear that you earn from killing a boss with a group of other people. It was utterly ridiculous that you could obtain gear equal in power to normal mode raid gear just by farming laughably easy 5 mans over and over again then going to a shop in the middle of Orgrimmar.So yeah, thumbs up for these changes from me.
