Let's now compare two currently IL90 items: Wyrm's Mail and Allagan Cuirass of Maiming.
Same attributes everywhere, except the Wyrm's Mail has Critical Hit and twice the Determination, whereas the Allagan Cuirass has Skill Speed and half the determination that the Wyrm's Mail has.
Presume that we get 5 more base (STR and VIT) out of the Allagan Cuirass.
It wold still be Skill Speed and half~ the determination (notice that in the other example of 5 IL of difference the secondary attribute remained the same)
The Wyrm's Mail would still be superior as it has sufficient Critical and Determination to outmatch the extra 5 STR that the Allagan would have.
You're severely misunderstanding the value of main stat in this game. I'd take the piece with 5 more STR, because its the smart choice.

You forgot to mention the release date of the patch. I believe it is Dec. 17.
I would have preferred it a little more towards the 10th but if everything works fine in the patch we should be able to play it over the holidays fairly smoothly and if anything does go wrong, it can be looked at prior to the holidays. In the past, other MMOs have released it pretty much on Christmas week and the gameplay was unbearable and couldn't be looked at till after the first of January and then when it was finally looked at it would be fixed days after.
I'll admit that i'm genuinely more excited for 2.1 than I was before.
Extreme primals are actually going to be worth time. + Challenge of doing them will be fun
Ultima Weapon hard/extreme YES!
CT is useless - Really sad such an iconic dungeon is going to be a pile of wank
Increased options
More story
Pretty excited overall.
raising item levels is so boring... i can't belive people farm the same stuff and myth stones just for that, BORING, atm i'm waiting for new content, i hope they will implent new jobs and different ways to play a job like in FFXI with subjobs for example, atm the game lacks content and different ways to play the game, so nothing to do for people who already have played all classes and seen all the content and dont care if they do 10 dps more or less lol...

So farming myth tomes is boring, but farming the same few fates over and over is exciting content. Got it.
If there were just other ways to make your character stronger other than gear that would be helpful for end game progression/characterization at least a little bit.
If we had a merit system/Alternate advancement system, item upgrading via myth, or some other thing, I don't think people would feel so pigeon-holed into raiding as the only aspect to progress one's character. There is plenty of fluff to do in the game to keep you busy but not a whole lot to progress your end game class. And as others have stated there is nothing to progress your character until 2.2 if you've cleared BC (which I haven't - Turn 4).
I still dont get the double flare being a bug, unless there is something im not aware of, the only time i end up double flare is by using convert or a potion that gives me enough for another cast. So if there was some bug that was being used, fixxing it wont affect me in any way or form. More utility would be nice but i wonder what, prob be able to battle rez like summoners cuz that is possible.
You can do a double Flare from UI3 if you time it right, and can follow that one with a third Flare with the use of a potion or Convert. The first one will have UI3 cast and damage, while the second one will have UI3 cast and AF3 damage. Double Flare has been my aoe rotation for some time now. I will be missing the fun times of triple Flare on a group of mobs, even if it usually got me killed.I still dont get the double flare being a bug, unless there is something im not aware of, the only time i end up double flare is by using convert or a potion that gives me enough for another cast.

Yoshi-P is doing his best and is patching Endwalker. Please wait warmly until it is ready.
