Even if the i110 weapons are now a reward from MSQ as per expansion HW, you cannot get all i110 weapons. Me and other people like how the i110 weapons look (mainly for glamour), in addition they already added i100 weapons for the new 3 jobs. Which many want to get and upgrade to give it that shine.

Keep the weekly quest for those Ironworks upgrades if you so desire, since giving new players more chances to get the upgrade items asap seems a solid idea imho.
For your first part, the 'need' to get all i120/i130 arms, well you have two options:
1- 13 weeks to get all weapons + 13 weeks to upgrade (total 6 months).
2- I don't raid in Bahamut's Coils, but I recall you can get the Encrypted tome there from chests, along with the Carbonwire and Carboncoat.

Regarding the 6 months time, the game is designed to last for years to come, IF all gears were obtainable in matter of a couple of weeks people would only subscribe on every patch for 1 month.

I don't want them to make gaining new arms easier than it is now, I mean I was laughing when the same Yagrush i110 I spent 15 ST runs to get it and two weeks of Hunting .. now its an optional reward for a whitemage (Lv.52 & i115+) who can't heal what I used to with i90-ish.
