What does this mean?

42% of Albion's classes are better off in their epic armor than in level 50, 100% quality spellcrafted gear.
40% of Midgard's classes are better off in their epic armor than in level 50, 100% quality spellcrafted gear.
9% of Hibernia's classes are better off in their epic armor than in level 50, 100% quality spellcrafted gear.

What else does this mean?

42% of Albion's classes are better off in their epic armor than in level 51, 100% quality spellcrafted gear.
30% of Midgard's classes are better off in their epic armor than in level 51, 100% quality spellcrafted gear.
0% of Hibernia's classes are better off in their epic armor than in level 51, 100% quality spellcrafted gear.

And what else?

Hibernians currently have to spend massive amounts of gold (platinum actually) to get armor that is even competitive. This means less gold available in the realm for things such as door repairs.
Mythic is going to increase stat caps for high realm ranks, so Albion and Midgard will benefit FAR more than Hibernia because we cannot even craft these quality armors.
