I'm saying you would have to purchase the DLC to stay up to par with the level cap and you would have to go through the process of re-leveling it but you would just have a bigger collection to choose from. I'm not saying that you can buy the DLC and get a new maxed out weapon and I can skip the DLC and get my Vision of confluence to the same damage. What I'm trying to say is all the weapons and armor should stay relevant but you need to purchase the DLC to reach its new potential. I want them to somehow implement this. For example, I buy the dark below, I beat Crota on hard and he drops an item called "the gift of Eris" or some crap like that and it lets me wipe the progression on one 30 light armor piece or 300 attack gun and upgrade it to current max level. I could get my VOG warlock robes to level 32 and it would help with the personalization of my character making it more unique. But in order to do that I had to purchase DLC and beat the hardest challenge in the game.
