Well... Someone here is a dedicated Destiny Community Podcast listener. You made two mistakes though. One. You failed to explain [i]fully[/i] how removing the armor perks was a necessity for Bungie. They wouldn't go as far as selling gear with perks (too much P2W for them, to their credit!) but they certainly couldn't convince players to buy and equip less than optimal gear, no matter how sweet it looked. The simple solution was to remove the perks on all armor, thus making the sexy Eververse gear more appealing as a purchase. Two. You forgot to give credit to Tefty for his tin-foil hat theory. That's just not very nice.
