The reward for the extra logistical work (I don't think anyone would argue that) it takes to run a 25 man raid is that you get to have a 25 man raid. If the joy you get for your preference of being in a 25 man raid over a 10 man raid isn't enough to justify the extra work, then why are you trying to run it? Any outside artificial incentive (gear, drops, legendaries, perks, what have you) to running a 25 man raid is just a bandaid trying to keep it alive for some unsustainable reason.

Why are you trying to force blizzard to keep spending development time on a feature that you yourself feel is less fun overall than the alternative? You should be attacking this from another angle, maybe have an optional boss that requires a 20 man raid (or other multiples of 10 man raid groups merging for an effort)? To ask blizzard to keep 25 man raiding alive with artificial crutches because the player base has seemingly decided that 10 man raiding is the way to go in too many numbers for "25 for lifers" to find a raid home is asking them to waste their resources.
