I don't think it is ever a good idea to downgrade, because the older bosses and any randoms after the first "daily" will reward the lower tier badges (or in the new system, "points"). Just think about this: if instead of buying 2 triumph badges from 2 frost badges, you got a healer and a tank friend to run two bosses in a heroic instance. Boom, 2 triumph emblems, minimal effort. Because you had mostly t9 you outgear it anyway, and now you are not an ENTIRE DAY behind on your frost emblems.

Really, it's a matter of patience. If you really aren't interested in getting your highest tier gear as quickly as you are able, then it seems like running some casual lower-reward instances are better for you anyway. I've never traded down frost for triumph, because the time investment for frost emblems is so much greater than pugging 4 people to run a random OR just go blitz Flame Leviathan for some easy quick badges.
