Now let's do some math. Assuming you're doing Amdapor, Brayflox HM and Halatali HM; it would take 270 runs to get enough myths for the Animus books ALONE (not to mention the grind they include in and of itself). Now, how many soldiery tomes would you get with 270 Amdapor/Halatali/Brayflox runs? You would get 12150 TOTAL. You still have the weekly cap, so if you're doing the grind for your Animus you're losing a lot of soldiery tomes; 12150 Soldiery tomes are 27 weeks of full-capping. TWENTY-SEVEN WEEKS, and 2.3 should (supposedly) come out in 12 weeks (3 months).
One problem with your math here is that there are other ways to obtain myths besides the new dungeons, with some of them actually giving more Myth (like the daily duty roulette).

The other problem is that you assume that a player should stop farming Myths once they reach the Soldiery cap otherwise they'll get "wasted", when in fact nothing prevents you from continuing to farm them. So going "TWENTY-SEVEN WEEKS" is meaningless.

Either way, it's a grind to get all that Myth, but it doesn't take 27 weeks.
