This whole "run it again later if you want the stuff then" argument never made sense to me. My time has value as well, and I already spent my time to get these currencies. Maybe I want to hold onto them in case I want to get any of the items they're exchanged for to use in later glamours - I don't need to get those items now and clog up my glamour dresser "just in case," but who can say if some piece from a raid from 2 expansions ago might be perfect to complete some glam concoction some years in the future? Why should I have to spend my time to re-earn things that I'd already earned and the game said "I don't value the time you spent on that, so throw it away and just run it again later?" For a game that has a reputation for being very respectful of its customers' time, that seems mighty DISrespectful, to me.
...if you are talking about weapons for new jobs, get the lockboxes and store them. If you are talking about the gear, unsyncs are easily feasible, many of them solo/duo even. You get guaranteed lockboxes. You are not entitled to redundant quality of life just to reduce your need to do certain content for 10-30min, because that is how much you realistically need to get what you want if it isn't exactly recent expansion savage gear (Pandemonium in our case).

Rule of thumb - if the content is two expansions ago, it's not worth holding the tokens in the first place because you can just farm them in what amounts to just minimal social interaction or a bit of soloing.
