And you can only equip one piece of exotic armor at a time.. (Destiny)

I think weapons get Ascendent Energy and armors get Ascendent Shards, which are part of what Legendary items require for the higher power upgrades (along with Glimmer, XP, and the other materials you find in the wild).
There's a cost vs. benefit here for sure. I don't have that Legendary scout rifle, but now my AR is fully leveled.
EDIT: I've also scrapped a Fusion Rifle I didn't like - since then I've received a Legendary sniper, shotgun (which is almost leveled) and machine gun which I'm all keeping right now. This is to say either I'm really lucky (good drops plus a primary weapon I got early that I adore), or been playing enough (been at 25 for a while) for the drops to come. In either case, I'm confident it'll keep coming.
