Byseps isn't even good early game by itself. You need Halpmeh (or alternatively, Fireball) in order to get full effect out of it. If I get Byseps early but alone, even on a purist it usually doesn't actually help (e.g I still take 3 hits to kill an enemy, even though my 3 hits are technically stronger), and if you got Halpmeh to pair up with it, it's honestly a little superflous.
In the old system where glyphs and item are seperate I might consider keeping it around until something better but on a race with instant conversion benefits (not the potion races, that is), there really isn't many times I can think where I would not convert it straight away.
