Unfortunately, too often the answer is yes for some players. In one game they're getting a little better, but it still reaers its head pretty consistently.
DM can always say no.

I wasn't aware that superior weapon proficiency was necessary in order to be an effective character. I thought it was just a feat you could take to give you some performance.
The solution could be to exercise restraint? Try to keep pace with the party, not with the bleeding edge?
Is that answer too simple?
Unless you get a proficiency bonus (greatspear), cross-weapon-group support (gouge), or a significant damage boost (fullblade), sure.Superior Weapon Proficiency is becoming a more and more worthless feat.

Or, if you get in via Dwarven Weapon Training, Elven Weapon Training, Gith Weapon Training...
Or are high enough level that you deal enough Ws consistently that even pure damage (ex: Mordenkrad) is still worth the upgrade.
And Superior Implement is almost always worth taking, since it always can satisfy one of those options.
The real time you avoid them is when you do a mix of weapon and implement powers, so don't get full use out of the feat expenditure.

That's 1 damage per W, which is going to equal or beat the effectiveness of other damage-boosting feats for most weapon-using classes. Not that anyone is going to take, say, superior weapon prof and not also take weapon focus (or whatever).The difference between a Bastard Sword and a Longsword is about 1 damage, more or less. That's it.
