Thats less to do with aa's and more to do with how fast sony released expansions. Aa's were just something to do when raid targets were dead or you couldnt/wouldnt raid and had the best gear you could get. While requirements for aa's came forth from min maxing just because you had 500 aa's and your friend had 800 aa's didnt mean you couldnt raid or group together unlike being lvl 30 and 50 or what have you.
