Idea on changing how substats work with gear

I am not making the argument that raiders DON'T have the best gear, what I am stating is that Raiders deserve better customization from their raid gear, so that ALL the raid gear from a raid is BiS, not 1 or maybe 2 pieces but ALL the pieces.

I understand that we get twines and dips to upgrade the tome gear, but I want to see the raid gear, ya know, the gear that drops from the raid, not from tomes, to be the best.

Every single drop from any Savage raid boss should be the best piece of gear you can get during a current patch cycle (even + odd), PERIOD.

Why?

Also, it's not just one or two pieces. Looking at my gear, it's seven.

EDIT:
Allowing custom stats to the gear would mean SE would scale the fights accordingly. It would be harder to balance entry raiding versus mid-geared raiding and fully geared raiding. You're not thinking long term; right now we have v1s to v4s. For v5s to v9s, they'd have to balance the fight in mind that there will be players with no raid gear and players with full raid gear. That would be incredibly hard to balance, if not impossible. It'd end up being too hard for new raiders or stupidly easy for returning raiders.

In the end, they would probably limit what stats you can put where. IE: Your chest you can put in all of the crit or dh to your heart's content. Then jump down to your shoes; now you can only put in skillspeed, determination and tenacity. Making the change questionable at best.
