So yes. His concern is valid.
DL was the best gear available in 1.0 (as far as I know) and was the stepping stone (read here : bare minimum) for BCoB(yes you can go far with i60ish gear, but not while knowing nothing, that's the point). Unless they really throw everything out of the window (I never experimented vertical progression games' extensions), they might do like they did for 1.0 => 2.0 and i130 will be the bare minimum to go into alexander blindly
