I get your point.
However, we don't know for sure that tiering is here to stay and that it is integral to FP+. Really, not being a jerk, but do you have official info that says tiering is here to stay? I haven't seen any.
Sure, the way things are now, it IS integral to FP+, but as we're seeing in this very announcement, FP+ is still changing. Teiring isn't a given, unless I missed something?

If you're looking for something official you won't find it. Disney barely acknowledges that tiering exists, after all, it's not really a "sexy" aspect of FP+ in the same way that booking your headliners before you arrive is.
Some very knowledgable people on here have actually done calculations on the numbers we know to be the capacity for those parks, and if I remember correctly calculated that a significant number of desirable attractions would have to be added to those two parks in order for it to make sense that Disney gets rid of tiers.
Ask yourself this, why would Disney let Soarin and TT run out long before the park opens? How does it align with their goals of FP+? They want the maximum number of people to lock in a ride they want (not just one they settled for) before they arrive so that they are less likely to go to a non Disney attraction in Orlando. Tiering is necessary if you understand what Disney is trying to do with the system, and you understand the capacity issues at DHS and Epcot.
