According to the stat weights at the time, most of the i280 Diadem weapons needed around 100 of "any" useful secondary (Read: Anything not piety or parry) to pull even with the Anima and Yoshida went ahead in an interview to tell people they are just plain worse.
I remember Yoshi-P saying "anima weapons are the strongest" and people trying to defend him.

And people were like "oh you need to listen to what he said in context". I heard what he said and I agreed with him on the RNG aspect. That still doesn't mean that i280 weapons > i275 weapons. Like, he literally said strongest instead saying it's your best bet or something.
