I understand your frustration, but I think it's going to happen.  Porsche has never said the RS would be the highest spec for the 997.  Porsche has a 40-year history of making the street-version RSR the top of the heap (it's just been dormant for awhile).

Don't worry, the existence of the 73RSR has not negatively impacted the values of the 73RS...
