Some players simply like to be the best they can and clear things as fast as possible or some simply love their "glamour is the end game" too much, so you'd have that crowd complaining and, some people just like to collect gear to pass the time, some want to have the gear ready for when content patches and expansions happen so they can leap right into the story and not be locked behind a too low ilevel.

There's many different reasons.

The tome system itself is still at its core rather flawed though.
