Tier-2 Rare Weapons (Destiny)

Does anyone else think the decision to add a new set of rare weapons in the expansion was a odd one?

I've mainly found these by completing strikes in the new Roc Strike Playlist. I haven't found any in the many rare engrams I've decoded since Tuesday. They're classified as Rare, but the final upgraded damage is 294 - practically on par with vanilla legendary gear.

So what role do they serve? Stop-gaps for players without legendary weapons, but wanting something better then the old rare weapons? Why not just upgrade them to legendary status/damage levels, and increase the diversity of everyone's end-game arsenal?
