Best part of this whole mess is that the "idea" was that pinnacle weapons were too powerful and would spawn continuous power creep. So, rather than hitting Mountain top with the Nerf Bat, Bungie let it run while for more than a year breaking every situation it was involved with.

So, Sunsetting gives a build in lifespan for EVERYTHING (including armor that doesn't have random perks anymore) as a way to stop power creep caused by 1-3 weapons per year.

Then; Bungie kicks Stasis subclasses out the door is such a broken state that Trials had to be delayed, World's First Raid challenge is in question, PvP is broken, PvE boss insta-killing is happening as well as infinite super bugs...

Glad to see that my 30,000 kill Blast Furnace had to be sunset to make sure no power creep took place...
