As 'useless' as when these were first pointed out 2.5 years ago to them as well.This feels like a useless discussion for many reasons.
1. The game is released, I doubt they would make any major changes to core systems now.
2. It would require a rework of many things.
3. The change would just make things more grindy.
4. It is probably an unpopular suggestion.
5. ???
6. No profits to be made here, sadly.
