Like u said it is to keep us busy while they work on something. Yes it won't hurt anything but it may be same pattern in D2. To put it an another way, would u like D2 to be a continuation of reskins of DLC on top of DLC. Is Destiny going to retain its player base just by reskinning? If yes, then Bungie will see it as a cheap path to make money. If no, then there is no point in wasting this money. I am not being negative but RoI forced a lot of community to quit. Reskin won't attract all of these quitters back and might give bad press. Best to leave things as is up until Dawning and focus on hopes for D2 and beyond.
