I've been done with my useful tomestone gear for weeks. Even if I wasn't, I've got enough drops from savage to gear other jobs as well. None of that is necessary because crafted gear is good enough to do the raids with.
How does it destroy savage? The gear gets replaced at each major patch cycle and if people are struggling clearing the content after week 4-5 there should be no issue giving people an option to keep progressing their gear. For every group that manages to clear a fight, there are those that have people that are struggling with it, and they need a reason to keep logging in outside of raid night. Some kind of sensation of progress. The gear score is irrelevant after the first month and a half anyway.
