Weather you would rather have 12 different items or 4 each of 3 is personal preference. Those who like to build their equipment stats will most certainly like 4 x Dreacht Capall instead of 1, due to the simple fact that all 4 will make it into their top 501 items.

I believe the aim of this 'extra loot' from Zynga would have been more to do with keeping lower level users happy, in that they can get some loot even if they don't have the resources to complete the entire mission. If you knew you could not complete all of chapter 3 and get the loot item then you wouldn't do any of chapter 3 at all, but if you can get something for each job you do manage then i am sure that is incentive to do some of it.

After all Zynga WANT you to spend as much resources on these as possible, because the more you put into limited missions the longer it will take you do get through all the permanent content, and thus the longer you will keep playing the game.

The new secret missions is another way of achieving this.. as well as their other goal which seems to be as much social networking posts as possible because every public post is free advertisement. (personally i have my mafia in a group and any posts i make are restricted to that group... so no new customers through me, sorry Zynga)
