While I don't agree with that decision they have chose, it is what it is.

As Canadane has pointed out though, this shouldn't have even turned into a Legacy vs. 2.0 debate. This is about an exclusive reward for a hard fight being given out for nothing. It can happen in ARR as well in 5 more years when they hand out gold Bahamut weapons.
If a technical glitch happens and they have to remove the Ultimate coil fight from the game entirely (silly, but that's the closest analogue to discontinuing 1.0) they would absolutely make the gold weapons available to everyone after a while, though.
