Okay, so you quoted their prices in bold and ignored the context of what I was actually saying.

Valuing BT that high accounts for it's passive. Valuing RH that low does not account for it's passive.

Without passives accounted for RH has a 440g excess in efficiency. BT has a 100g excess in efficiency.

What it ultimately comes down to is whether RH's passive can be valued for 1080 gold worth of AD or not.

This is difficult to quantify based on number of targets, the amount of cluster happening in a team fight, and the preexisting total of AD before RH is built. The more AD, cluster, and targets you have the more powerful and valuable RH's passive becomes.
