Resets provide help. (Destiny)

The week limit is NOT a challenge, and it is NOT a meaningful design decision since the fact that you have unlimited lives and saved progress is just like every other modern game. All it does is hurt people who have lots going on in real life.

The weekly reset provides a few very helpful things to raiders. (more thinking D1 then D2)
- Chance to obtain higher light gear from encounters you finish.
- Chance to earn weapons with perks that are specific to the particular raid encounters (oracle disruptor)
- Chance to earn armor with perks for the various raid encounters

You start adding all that up and it helps to provide players with gear to help them get through the raid easier and faster.

With their whole weekly reset system for everything in the game, I really don't see why they should get rid of the weekly raid reset either

I said nothing about the loot reset. Only checkpoints. And if you wanted to, you can manually erase your checkpoint and start fresh. Your concern would not come to pass since starting over is always an option.
