Galatine was, arguably, the BEST melee weapon until War... it wouldn't take much to turn it into a prime that succeeds War. And maybe the Tigris syndicate version will be superior, maybe not--I direct you to Boltor Prime which is vastly superior to it's syndicate counterpart (both Sancti and Telos both restore health so the difference between the procs isn't much). Not to mention both these new weapons have considerable fanbases, more so than other recent prime weapons (Akstilleto, Fragor, Spira--Nikana Prime being the exception). Give Galatine Prime a higher attack speed than War and War doesn't stand a chance. Give the new Tigris a higher reload speed or larger clip and the syndicate version is gone.

Yes, maybe Nekros is a bit of a one-trick pony but don't forget there is a rework of at least a couple of his abilities coming with the prime version. Nekros is also one of the coolest looking frames (IMO) and is a requirement for effective resourced farming. Nekros already gets plenty of use and a Nekros Prime could be brought into more dangerous situations while still remaining effective at more than just standing in the background pressing 3 every few seconds. Besides, Nekros looks fucking awesome and the farme theme is one of the most exciting.
