Why even bother with focused decoding?

So maybe I'm missing a key point here, but if you have to unlock the exotic in your collections to focus decode it, which would allow you to claim it with legendary shards, why would you waste two exotic engrams and an ascendant shard on focused decoding exactly? Cause I don't see the point. I could see it if it would allow me to narrow down what I am claiming to be in the pool of the item I want, or allowing me to get the exact exotic I want, but if I can't do either of those and can only either go RNG or claim from a pool of items when I have that entire pool, why would I not just RNG?

    Hmm. I thought it was for the new lights, so they can get exotics too. But now that you told me that you first have to unlock them: it's pointless. Unless lets say you want a certain exotic with good stats. Normally you have to wait till it drops, but world drops and sectors also dropped other exotics. So you had to wait untill that certain exotic dropped and also had to hope for good stats. Now you can choose that one, so you have a faster chance for good stats. That is: if the engrams give higher stat ones. Which i dont know.
