"Furthermore, any set bonuses, enchants, Legendary bonuses, or trinket effects will be deactivated (although your Artifact and its related Artifact Powers will remain active).
"We're also doing away with the idea of PvP-specific gear. Since your stats are pre-determined, trinkets and set bonuses are disabled"

Disabled does not mean they are taken out of PvP at all. Disabled means "having a physical or mental condition that limits their movements, senses, or activities." i.e. the on use, or chance on hit effects of trinkets are not working, not that your trinket slots are suddenly null and void.
You're beating a dead horse. If trinkets are disabled then they're not functioning. Don't fucking go and google the definition of disabled, and then take the illness "Disabled". This is the correct definition on "Disabled" when we're talking about an Object: "to make legally incapable; disqualify." - I believe we both can agree that disqualify means that you're not participating in an activity.
