For what it's worth, I am really enjoying not having the meta be get a Galli, buy ammo synth, Galli everything in PvE. My raid team, going in blind 'cause why else do a raid, was able to clear the raid with out synth. Sure, there was a time or two we would have loved to synth power, primary, or seconday, however, we found the lack of synth actually made us focus on playing the activity thoughtfully. It has been my experience, based on hundreds of raids through three years of Destiny, that ammo synth is often used to mask lower skill or lack of patience. I also appreciate not having that one person always saying after a quick wipe, "Uh...I need 4:25 until I can go again...gotta synth." My personal opinion is that the designers gave us everything we need to overcome the challenges they placed in our paths...for what it's worth...

"I am really enjoying not having the meta be get a Galli" That was NEVER the meta there was ALWAYS diversity in weapon use in D1.

That was not my experience of the game, especially the end-game content. It was so bad, my team and I were constantly guiding new players through raids and heard how many times they had been rejected from other groups because they didn't have/wouldn't use Gallarjhorn. I respect that you might have had different experiences and come to another conclusion. Mine however, have led to to a different place.
