(Adept) Weapons (Destiny)

The Elemental primary rewards you get from the lighthouse are acceptable for two reasons: You can get non-elemental versions of them from Brother Vance (which are identical to the Adept versions in the crucible), and you can earn other elemental primaries in different activities.

In addition to everything you just said, I think the Trials Adept weapons help balance things out for those PvP players who don't raid very often, therefore have few options for elemental primaries. The elemental damage has no benefit in PvP, but at least these players have more tools to help them out with Nightfalls and other top level PvE content.
