Ceremonial Plated "Outfit"
This topic has been debated tons of times.
Outfits take less time to complete, and are most cost efficient for Anet. At the same time, their advantage is you can ‘temporary’ overskin any armor of any char you have with them. This is not possible with a normal skin. That is why it’s labeled as outfit.
For mix and match it will take a lot more Anet work to make (get all the clipping bugs out). That’s why we have cultural, and other good looking armors.
Legendary weapons can be hidden now!
No excuse anymore for not giving ‘hide mounts’-option
No thanks to unidentified weapons.

For Anet it is about the $$$$ only.
