This will be particularly important for Ninja Tools, although making Bolts, Bullets, and Arrows will also greatly benefit. Bolts and arrows could probably be from an adjusted or renamed "Boltmaker" while bagging toolbags and casing cards could be from a new "Bagging" or "Bundling" KI that all crafts can obtain.
Nope. To be fair crafting delays have gone down a little, which slightly lessens this, however you still have crystal costs, which have maintained for various reasons.

Still only used to make Vivified Coral, however Vivified Coral can now be used for an Airmid's gorget, and Blenmot's Ring/+1.

Slightly more useful since its used in making a piece of Scholar gear that can now be reforged.

Optima gear is now obsolete, and the Blink Band is all but and is more rarely selling.
Slightly useful still since it is used in upgrading some gear that can now be reforged so it can be upgraded for less chapters.

strong thread about this already, it bears repeating. Food needs to be better balanced in roles other then just melee attack, ranged attack, and defense.
Defense food is more valuable to mages now with defense changes, as well as dINT being slightly more useful.
Reportedly Cehuetzi Snow Cone has some Magic Attack Bonus on it, but since it is rarely made and requires a semi-expensive item to make.

Stewpots could probably still use more exciting recipes, but at least it got the Warthog Stewpot.

Cehuetzi Snow Cones have been added. Are they useful? They take a 100~200k item to make and are targeted for mages that have had food neglected for years, so who knows?

The Stoneskin Torque is less useful now, and sells rarely, however Reraise Earrings are still popular. Gold Purification is now also used in making item the Malison Medallion.

The Numus Set is obsolete, however Lightweight Steel Sheets are used to upgrade armor that can be reforged, which is useful for saving chapters.

Warp Cudgels still sell... somehow. With the introduction of the Warp Ring you'd think they wouldn't however.
