My opinion... don't go bonkers on gearing and leveling mediocre toons to mediocre levels.
My Rey who is level 85, g10, full 5dot mods etc is worth 30k GP.
Warrior's video showed 280k GP earned from 5/6 on a combat mission (don't forget the character GP also)...
So 5 proper toons doing one battle will be worth more than 10 of those "near" complete toons which more expensive then everyones suggests of level 43 then 50 something etc.
Now the vid I saw could have been phase 6 or something... but I think the same principles that have already applied to raids etc will still apply here. The right toons, geared and modded correctly will be worth a ton more points.
The GP from deployments is just fodder, sure it will help but if you are diverting any resources from toons that will actually battle I don't think its the best decision.
If you want to spend your credits, star up all your lightside toons sitting with shards just waiting to hit 7*. Those will be worth waaaaay more in platoons than half geared ones in deployments.
