I'll admit that I really dont understand what it is they want, so please enlighten me!

Is it gear that really brings them forward, aka has a benefit in the sense of better stats?
Is it simply showing off?
Is it keeping "filthy casuals" out of crafting as much as possible?
Is it truely more difficult crafting, as in recipes and challenges that make you think - or are they still hung up on the weird notion that luck, RNG and praying are a challenge and want that back?
Do they seek an actualy challenge for the fun of the challenge - or do they just want something exclusive to rub into other peoples faces to feel special?

I'm really at a loss here, because I dont understand why "better gear" would be a good reward if theres nothing that better gear allows you to do - yet its been claimed that its a desired reward. I'd like to understand why - if it doesnt enable you to do anything new or special or even just improve on what you've already been doing... why would it be something you want?
Or is what you actually want something more thats locked behind getting this better gear first? New recipes that can only be crafted with better stats that require you to have this better gear - kinda like what happens every other patch...
