At that point, you only consider the bonus feat that each path offers.
True, but it is still there. More importantly, Toughness vs. Defensive Mobility for a ranged attacker looks like a no-brainer to me: 5HP per tier > +2 AC vs. OAs when I'm looking at a Ranged Striker.
Oddly enough, if I were looking for a highly mobile Melee Striker, I'd be more inclined to pick up Defensive Mobility than with a Ranged Attacker.
