Amusingly, I've owned people with elites and drok's armor using my n/w and n/me before.

And that's without elites OR drok's armor.

Superior skills doesn't mean you necessarily have the experience or skill to back them up

Even if you're doing it 'just for laughs', you're selfishly ruining the experience of other people, especially these days where lots of new people are around from the 10 hour accounts, their first (and thanks to you, probably only) taste of PvP is a heavily skewed fight where they have no clue why their attacks aren't doing any damage while they're getting slaughtered. Disgusting.

I thouroughly agree. Droks armor, Elites, and max dmg weapons are all intended to cheapen the experience of honest and fair play in the arena. But on the other hand I had one on my team and he was demolished by the opposing team. He literally could do no damage to them, all honest players, and sat down (/sit) to die and shameful death.

It is overrated but not a guarantee of anything. If ANET did something about it, these same nubs would go find another way to ruin PvP or some other aspect of the game.
