Excellent post with many valid points. I'm not enthusiastic about Bungie consigning all of our hard won weapons and gear to the dustbin. Especially after the House of Wolves DLC allowed us to ascend our old vanilla Legendaries up to current stat values. Making all current gear obsolete removes all need to play VoG, CE, ToO or PoE, basically there is no need to even own TDB or HoW. Knowing that our current gear won't be upgradeable to the new limit of TTK means there is little reason to even continue playing Destiny at this time. Factor in the overcharging for TTK in the UK ($63 instead of $40), plus the release of some pretty decent games recently, then there is even less incentive to continue with Destiny.
