How is that any different than "Must have +3 or GTFO" or "Must be Rank 50 or GTFO". Elitists will always be elitist, and always demand the best or GTFO. It doesn't matter what the best is. Meanwhile, expand the repair system and hey! Crafters have something to do! Make it so that repairs over 100% can only be done with +1/+2+3 mats, and maybe the "Something to do" will trickle down to gatherers as well, at least a little bit.
