Why not nerf relic 80 material grind too?

[Felis]

Then the strongest line of reasoning for any adjustments to it is that the function it served as a non-raid required alternative, meant to be as difficult to obtain as a 210 weapon from Gordias Savage but via time and acquisition of items outside of raiding and those being your only two options so they felt they had to have some form of equivalency in how difficult they were to obtain, no longer applies.

They were in 3.1 an alternative to Gordias Savage weapon, but we have 3.2 now.
Now it is an alternative to get a ilevel 230 weapon and to be prepared for a ilevel 240 weapon, not Gordias Savage weapon. And the ilevel 230 step didn't add much time on the total needed time on the questline if started at step 1, so the time to complete the quests didn't get longer with 3.2

Or where are all those "3.2 relic step need too much time" threads?
Wait until 3.3, this is where the devs will nerf the ilevel 210 step so that the whole questline still need 1.5 - 2 months to do.
