Factions useless?
With the "commendation" system and vastly larger weapon & equipment inventories; why would you even bother to advance your Faction reputation?
Only for the armor bonuses to Strength, Discipline and Intellect?
Commendations ensure you must progress in Vanguard and Crucible to buy Legendary items if RNG isn't kind to us.

Also earning Crucible rep is agonizingly slow. One Crucible match gives you the same 10 rep as the patrols, but you can complete a patrol in a minute or two. So you can grab a patrol bounty, get 110 rep in a fraction of the time it takes you to get a 50rep Crucible bounty+6matches.
