The problem is----like Vanguard and Crucible tokens---we are stuck with a system that has out lived its usefulness. IN the Vanilla D2 weapon system, energy weapons had a specific purpose....and the only energy weapons were primaries. So it was no problem limiting certain perks to certain weapaons because everyone was going to have some sort of energy primary equipped. But when we returned special weapons to the game with Fosaken.....all this became a problem. as most people in PVE equip some sort of special weapon in the energy slot unless they are being forced to run weapons with champion mods. IOW I think Bungie is doing it so as not to devalue Ace of Spades as an exotic (its primary exotic perk is that its a kinetic weapon with Firefly). But the problem is that the system we got stuck with doesn't make very much sense given where the system is now....and it was only kept to soothe the bruised egos of the Weapons Team that gave us vanilla Destiny 2. This whole system needs to be overhauled....and returned to something like Desitny 1. I know Bungie doesn't like to "look backwards". But they need to accept----like with unlimited infusion----this current system isn't working, and adopting it really wasn't a step forwards.
