Agreed, acc is much less important than it used to be. But the fact still remains that any other group 1 merit > spirit perp cost.

Keep telling yourself that. There are studies and tests done on the subject that shows that they are useless.

I've run a very basic test myself on this.
STR atma -> slight damage increase
Attack atma -> hardly noticable increase
STR+attack atma -> some damage increase

My theory is that avatars have too low STR to benefit from attack bonus. Basically their existing attack allows them to hit damage cap... which is low due to being BLMs with the STR of a BLM. Increasing STR makes your attack uncapped, so it can hit harder, but not guaranteed to. Raising both is the only solid choice.

If anyone want to seriously find out, they can do more tests. I have a good enough indication that attack isn't worth it to not bother with collecting such gear.
