How do you handle folks that hit 60/70/etc. before they've unlocked the appropriate tomestone vendor? Or even white gear vendor? Somebody who's diligent about running roulettes is going to be 60 well before they hit HW. Same with SB and ShB. Are they now doomed to the vagaries of the market board or the good will of somebody who has? Too risky IMO.

There are two ways to handle that. The first is to use the min ilvl of the highest raid a character has unlocked. The second is to not story and region gate those vendors. As an aside having all the poetics vendors in one spot would be a huge QoL feature.
The new players wouldnt be affected anyway.You cant unlock the level 50/60 or 70 alliance raid stories until you've progressed so far into story that you have unlocked the vendors for those levels.
Also new players will have racked up poetics from dungeons and trials through story as its their frist time it gives poetic bonus in all of their runs.This means they can gear up enough to get into the alliance dungeons for that approrpiate no problem.And if they cant do the entire lot they can just run the first of the series along with roulettes or the dungeons there are at that level to get higher gear drops.

The only people the change would affect is people to cheap and lazy to gear alt jobs who are the main problem.
Also think of the factor that new players are struggling to get into the level 60 or 70 alliance dungeons because the people gear switching when queueing or not gearing up when queueing are removing themselves from that part of the alliance roulette queue because they are forcing the game to queue them to only lvl 50 alliance dungeons.
