The current Alexandrite situation.

[Calipso]

Even just doing a few small things would help and change a decent amount. Removing the 3 person requirement from Salvage would be a big deal. (Although I personally wouldn't really want to do Salvage more than once a day, I might if I got desperate enough), or just upping the drop rate period. The drop rate is pretty lopsided compared to what you can get in Dynamis and Voidwatch. As an example, one of the last times I did a dynamis, it was myself on thf, a whm mule, and a mnk. We got a little over 800 coins. On average, depending on competition and some other factors, we can very easily do 700-800+ coins a run. The 3 of us in Salvage, if we were very lucky, killed everything in the zone and got max pouches of everything, could get *maybe* 300 alex. Getting that much is extremely rare, and it is more like about a 100-120 alex per run average.

As for adding R/E/M drops into each others path, I really don't see it being all that weird being added into voidwatch. 80-90 emps came from Abyssea, so you could argue that putting their 90-99 paths into Voidwatch didn't make much sense to begin with. Voidwatch also drops a lot of random stuff that before only exclusively came from 1 or 2 rare places, but they added to make it more plentiful (the same idea/thing happened with Abyssea and items you could now obtain from Gold Boxes). You can get (albeit very rarely) Dyna currency as a reward from Campaigns. I'm not sure they should add dyna currency into other aspects of the game, as Dynamis and it's currency is still going way strong, and has not shown any signs I've noticed of wavering since they updated it over a year and a half ago. Prices are at the cheapest I've ever seen them (although it's likely they'll go back up a little when the R/E/M updates get pushed through). I'm fairly certain if you had the required gil and wanted to make a relic, you could likely buy every single coin you needed in 1-2 days.
