Ugh, is there any workaround on using legendary weapons?

I just made my first legendary weapon (well, i made a few in the past, but sold all).

I don't get it. Every single time I unequip it, I have to set it up again if I want to use it? I rotate between staff, swords, spear, greatsword and torch on my reaper, just for fun or convenience. I was wondering: if all were legendaries, that would be an absolute nightmare!

Is there any way around it? I see that the only convenience would be using these on my alts that barely get any play or toons that have only a set of viable weapons. I have the astral kits to make more, but it seems that rather than adding convenience, they may create a problem that wasnt there?
