What is the point of end game gear from Coil, if you can just wait for people to craft the equivalent gear?

The same thing has been shown right now, why bother coil for i90 if you can just get Tome gear full i90? Sure your not full BiS, but no one kicks you from a party if your not full BiS....(LF1 Full i90 DPS) they do not care about BiS...So most people never play coil and just gear up with tomes. Which is the whole point, Yoshi put all the best gear in t6-9 so you would have a reason (beyond getting those BiS gloves) to enter coil.
