Question about this point (Destiny)

I can bring up a 280 weapon that makes me happy to a reasonable level.
So this is obviously a personal decision, but what is that level for you?
To make things easier on myself and to save time & space, I have a rule that if I get a blue item below 286, I dismantle it ASAP.
A few weeks ago I had a streak where three or four exotic engrams decrypted as 290 weapons. I was annoyed--I wanted 310. It made me wonder a few things: Why don't any drop at 300? How much of a difference does 290 vs 310 make, really? Does it only matter at the highest level activities (KF HM?)
In Vanilla Destiny I felt like I had a pretty solid idea of how levels affected my damage output and defense, but the system is much more complicated now and the details are definitely not obvious.

- That would require a fundamentally different type of game.
