I agree on the water heater design issue. The fact that Itasca specifically mentions the prospect of weeping tells me they couldn't find a good solution, so just punted. Kind of like the line from computer folks: "It's not a bug, it's a feature."
In a residential setting, T&P valves regularly last decades. This one had to be replaced on an eight year old RV. I have to think the regular, low key weeping of the valve led to early failure.
So, it's a bug; but one I have to live with, and thus the diverter.
