Say elements were never on any primaries to begin with but all of the raid drops remained the same. The vast majority of people would still have used Fatebringer with no arc due to its unique perk and how well they synergized with the base stats of the gun as well as VoC. Elements were just icing on the cake

That is true. Destiny in year one had issues with a handful of weapons being more powerful than all others. That's really a different discussion, but does relate to elemental primaries. In year one those few weapons were what got people excited when they dropped. Year two is different because that excitement happens but when people get drops with high attack or defense. I will be just as excited when I get a 320 drop in the raid as I was when I got Fatebringer or Blackhammer. That excitement is still there, it's just happened ing in a more useful way, because that 320 drop can go into whatever weapons or armour I want.
