You did make several valid points, and I have no doubt that many people would certainly abuse the Gjallarhorn if he sold it. With that being said, I get sick of all these people thinking they are better than me because they bought Gjallarhorn when he sold it or got it in a drop. Suddenly, I must be a scrub because RNG has not granted me the "Special Wonder Weapon." Would I like Xur to sell it? Sure! For the same reason I want him to sell Icebreaker. If people want it, they will buy it. They will either use it or they won't. Personally, I prefer exotic Specials or Primaries over exotic heavies. So if I did get it, I would probably just use it for boss battles, or to allow me to fulfill different roles in a fireteam, like redabishai said a few comments down. The gun is easily the best launcher in the game bar none, so don't be surprised if they use the dreaded Nerf gun on it, or at least improve other launchers like Dragon's Breath to be more effective compared to it.

I actually use it for the same purpose you described, boss fights. Typically, against scrub enemies I'll find myself using Mythoclast or Hawkmoon.

Damn, wish I could get Hawkmoon. Sadly, I play Destiny on my Xbox.

Yeah, I actually think that the whole year of exclusivity is kind of cheap. For the strikes its understandable, but Hawkmoon should at least become available once you buy Crota's End or something on Xbox. It is arguably the best primary in the game, after all.

And replaying the same six strikes gets a little old after a while. But hey, Xbox had exclusive access to Halo for years, and gets extra content early for other games, so it kind of balances out.
