I'm sure many people will make the simplistic 'goods' versus 'bads' argument but that isn't the issue: it is Blizzard trying so desperately to push World of Arena Craft down more and more people's throats. I could probably spec Disc/Holy and find a couple of decent people to partner with and manage more than enough rating to buy the few pieces of Season 4 honor items but... I don't want to because I don't enjoy Arena. I don't think it has any place in an MMORPG but apparently Blizzard is going to be married to it for quite some time as it provides additional revenue.
There will always be those players who don't want to "earn" their gear. That's fine if you feel that way. Personally, I think the top pvp gear should all be "earned" and not free in any way.
