It encouraged variety in user choice. (Destiny)

I'm pretty sure Bungie wanted people to try different weapon styles. The whole Gunsmith thing was the reward system to encourage testing a variety of guns.

It was exactly this testing that led me to the HAKKE D series of weapons. Ultimately I found the Arminius-D to be my favorite gun. Co-incidentally it was so powerful they had to nerf it (not enough to make me switch though).

I continue to test the gunsmith's weapons. Bungie seems to make changes in the line up. I like being reminded why I do or don't like a weapon's characteristics.
