I can understand low level gear having some model overlap

Besides, my point (contextually) was it's more important in PvP than PvE, not that it's essential or necessary.

and my point was if they can put that much effort into gear that very few will even get, why cant they do the same for gear that a large majority of people will, namely tome gear.

I spoke to that, incentivization.

Also reward. The people who put in the hard work & the effort, slaving away deserve uniqueness moreso in my opinion.

The entirety of the general populace has easy access to Tome gear, so a generalized set is more suitable.

Additionally, helps if you spell out your point a bit better to begin with... that literally didn't come out whatsoever in your original post.

So PvP gear which is buried inside a system which most people don't even want to have anything to do with (Or at least, until they get their vanity gear) deserves more attention than actual end-game content gear in terms of design? Please. I'll agree that it's there for an incentive but it's more of a "Guys please play PvP, please." than anything else.

No, it's the reward for those who choose to put in the time PvP'ing.

Sorry you dislike PvP, but it's your choice to avoid it & therefore not reap its rewards.

Niche systems should be rewarded far greater than the mainstream ones, it just makes sense like that.

Why do players deserve awesome, unique armors who simply beat some 4-mans once a week?

Or how about the ones who by the blood & sweat of their brow grind away endless hours in the arena, don't they deserve it more?
