We all know the "REMOVE CORES FROM INFUSUON" rant has been going on, but I have seen virtually no alternative use for cores given. If they are removed from infusion, they would absolutely need an alternative use.
Some players have worked tremendously hard for their stash of cores, and it would be a shame if that went to nothing. Granted a lot of people exploited and Bungie would have to crack down on that, but still. Cores would need another use.
These are just some ideas. Feel free to comment any others and discuss!
