Yes. I do expect to be able to use them. I expect the CHOICE of using them. How many times have they said "Destiny is about being the guardian you want.", "Doing the things you want to do." I expect choice. You obviously never played WoW. Even though I couldn't use gear from Vanilla WoW, I could transmog new gear so I still could use things I loved from the beginning. Just because you don't want to use Fatebringer for 5 years straight doesn't mean others have the same view point. There is something to be said about using a weapon or piece of gear that fits your play style just right.
