If you don't like doing something then no one is forcing you, there's certain raid gear pieces i would love to have as glamour but I'm not raiding so i don't get to acquire them.
First, glamour is not the same as BiS. Second, that sort of thinking has been proven out in every game that any sort of decision regarding gear or skills. The overwhelming majority of players will go with the setup that sims the highest, regardless of what level of content they are at. WoW went from that type of model to a reduce model for that reason.
