They stated on a devstream last year that the reason they were thinking about bringing them back was because the way they distributed them in the beginning was by having them in the market for 5 credits for a limited period of time. This led to huge amounts of Closed Beta Testers not getting the weapon either due to not being able to log in during that time or simply not being aware the Lato and Braton Vandal were in the market.

So it was either, leave it as an exclusive reward to CBTs that were lucky enough to find and get it within the timeframe, or let every CBT finally get the damn thing and, yes, allow other players to get it as well.

Personally, I think they should release a skin for them that's exclusive to CBTs at the very least, but all things considered the barrier to getting the parts is so goddamned high I don't think you're going to be seeing a ton of them in Tennos' hands any time soon. Or ever. Most people aren't willing to grind that hard.
