Well, it's the visible stuff that matters (item looks/stats/titles/mounts) most after killing bosses, that's probably why there was an outcry against looks on arena gear at first and now gear quality. Give us titles and normal (but different) mounts and there's still something remaining that makes us look "special" (hah, take that anyway you like :P).
True, a free HS with pretty much no CD is infinitely more useful then let's say a 100% mount but I've never been asked what's that spell you're casting while T6 and Bear Mount and earlier even Champion of the Naaru gets a lot of fans (and ridicule sometimes while doing BGs but nothing better than 1-2shotting someone once in a while, not like I can kill anything in pve gear + spec face to face :P).
So ultimately if I am not to remain with the "uber" gear since I'll prolly be able to buy every t6 badge reward I want on my alt when it shows up and jump from t4-t5 gear to t5+ gear in 1 day (one of the reasons I got over the whole gear for casuals is that my alt has managed to spend hundreds of badges on decent gear and while my guild doesn't really run ZA regularly, let alone alt-ZA I can easilly MT/OT/DPS and even heal in other guild's runs and most of the time do 2-3 chests simply due to badge gear).
