with sov gear the only thing you mask are 7 talismans for all the rest there is the armory.

Do you really think that ppl who spent lots of time on appearance gear to make their chars look different, did it so that everyone and their mother would copy that?

Yes becuase, those items are available to everyone, their not some limited time accessible content dlc etc what have you nonsense, their is a finite amount of accessible gear in this game implemented or not
your character will never be a special little snowflake, their will always be someone out their who will have the same item as alt app so some one going "hurr i found this in some pq/quest/tier influence reward and i wont share the location with anyone" , is basically doing it out of spite and nothing more
quite sad really

Bingo. Often I have to deal with many tells so it helps filter it out and make it a little easier, and I still recieve tells asking to see my gear, which just leads to more questions about the class/advice, helps limit this to have myself hidden, plus they can always use the website armory to look at my gear if so interested.
Also - I can see all of your secrets even when hidden

Part of me is curious now to know if you get a little triggered every time you see someone with the same alt app items as you
Well what ever its your prerogative whether you want to share the location of virtual item or not
Thankfully not everyone else is as shallow or arrogant

Women are always arrogant when it comes to the looks- doesn't matter irl or ingame, so you shouldn't be surprised
