Everyone but orks and nids have to invest most of their T2 resources in upgrades, that said, purgatus is an extremely powerful wargear that matches it's cost, a cost reduction would result in a stun and damage reduction much likely it happened to Providence.
I still think that most races have a better eco once they hit t3 generally. Space marines generally have less units, IG may have multiple stormtrooper squads, four or five squads from t1, maybe ogryns and likely a manticore before they hit t3, the upkeep as well as the bleed of catachans and ogryns if such a route is took (which playing the inquisitor usually dictates) means that you won't have enough $ in t3. I dunno, it is a very powerful ability indeed, but it's not like the inquisitor is a super tanky hero, I mean it's not like it's unstoppable like warlocks providence, but I understand the greatness of the ability (i.e. it's mass crowd control, ability to chain combos, ability to wipe squads). It's just so not worth it at the moment if I already have one of the other armours, as the only reason I would be t3 most of the time is because I need a leman russ ASAP.
