Why is endgame loot capped?

[Jojoya]

...Because it's required for ultimate?

Did you try reading the rest of what I posted there? Because I did mention Ultimate. And it's only needed for Ultimate assuming there is one and better gear hasn't been released.

Ultimates, making reclears easier, because they want it.

So outside of Ultimate, the same reasons that any one wants gear.

Why should raiders be an exception when the rest of the player base has to wait to get their gear over time?
