Where's The Boots?

Why don't any of the new armor sets come with boots? The new PvP stuff have boots available but they are not part of the set, and the tier 4&5 sets have no boots available at all. Some classes that wear robes can hide the missing item pretty well, but other classes look incomplete with out their footwear. This strikes me as completely ridiculous and lazy on Blizzards behalf.

We've moved away from the complete 8-piece armor sets, such as Tiers 1 through 3, in favor of smaller sets which can be intermingled with other sets. Generally, the class sets will fill out conventional slots, while other sets may take a combination of boots, gloves, rings or what have you, to fill out other slots.

We feel it adds a little more variety to gear combinations and set bonuses and players don't have to make such a complete and total commitment to one set of gear.
