In all honesty I am an ilv84 pally and have no alts yet. Therefore I do not require any CT gear, and my philo is currently maxed out. The only reason I ran a CT was to see the content and grab the achievement. Now I still participate, but I will only do it as "join in progress" because based on the number of tanks in CT, it is more liekly I will get to skip ahead and collect my easy myth. Working as intended, that's just the way it is. Commendations? I can farm those from guildhests easily enough and those are only a couple minutes long! It's a waste of my time to join a CT from the get go and risk ppl RQ'ing after every wipe. That's how I feel about it anyway.
