The extra benefits need not be non-storyline rewards. It could manifest in many ways, such as allowing Legion to start on the next vault earlier, or decreasing the next vault's HP according to the difference between the two vaults' HP at the time of one's defeat. Point being, if the layer system were to work out, the winning side for each layer should have some sort of benefit, else each side might as well take their time until the final layer. Or it could be a considerably insignificant non-storyline reward (not gear, definitely, and as has never been the case), such as extra achievements, which appear to be the case.
@Mr Black Op
Exiles will be able to purchase the armour once they get through the first Vault door as well, so I don't see why Legion's ability to purchase the armour is a benefit in any way. Furthermore Legion aren't 'winning', as you claim, because all their progress over Exile for this first stage is nullified by an equal start for the second stage. Presumably this will continue for subsequent stages until the final stage, which is seemingly the only stage that actually matters. Not only that, everyone who has used varium for the first stage has essentially wasted it.
On a side note, I hope the level cap increase comes during, not after, the war :P
