Am I totally crazy, or does this bug you too? (Destiny)

I have 30 some Sterling Treasures built up. I've opened a couple of them in the past. Sterling Treasure never seem to drop anything that is at level. So they would not help you (or me) at all get to 335. It always seems to be items that feature Taken style or Chroma to "look cool" that start at level 3 and need to be fully infused.

Does anyone have any suggestion for opening Sterling Treasures? Should I open them all before Rise Of Iron drops? Will they be no good after Rise Of Iron?
Should I wait until after Rise Of Iron because they will get a new loot pool, updated light levels, new Chroma colors, etc??

I would just open them now. They definitely won't have updated light levels, they are purposefully set at 3 so that they couldn't possibly give someone who bought them a light level boost. I assume you'll still be able to open them (otherwise people would complain if for some reason bought one and didn't open it before RoI drops), but even if they add something to the pool I'm guessing just like previous stuff that they are determined when you get them instead of when you open them. RoI is actually going to have new treasure called "radiant treasure" (from GI issue) which I assume will be the expansion's version of sterling treasure, meaning I doubt anything new will be added to sterling treasures.
