Running Hard gives you the drops you'd have gotten on Normal that week anyways, no?

Not exactly. You get double drops, but the Hard-only gear is in the mix for all drops. So if you're chasing the hard-mode loot, you're better off doing a single hard run than a normal run, followed by a hard run.

I just happen to be in the opposite camp. The gear I want is available in normal mode, so it actually makes sense for me to avoid the hard mode drops.
