You may be right, however I do not see Gree taking the risk of losing big spenders. A lot of people who spend the 5k on the armor would have spent 3-4k on the war anyways, so you can't look at it as an additional 5k gems being purchased every time, more like 1-2k. Looking at it that way, the current T10 award will still be more expensive, make a lot more $ for Gree.

Not to mention, many of the current players who can actually spend 5k gems to get the armor, also are the same members who already spent 3k gems for it a few months ago, they don't want a duplicate, they'd rather get a chest armor they don't already have.

P.S. There has actually been a decrease in spending and points lately, at least on android, this past war was the cheapest T10 in months, although the most expensive T25.
